lyrics

Yeah the older silent professor
Said he'd like to hold your hand
And eventually undress you
And then make love in the sand

Who really needs someone to love
Yeah he whispers in your ear
Can it be really up above
Anything that you fear

You think for a bit without logic
You know this might just be ok
And no that certainly no one would suspect that
That you would ever ever be that way

Now things begin to start unfold
And You are not sure you feel ok
I mean your young and he's so old
This ain't the best you could have done today

You ask him to stop for a moment
Just to explain the big mistake
Yeah you’re quickly undoubtedly scolded
As you continue to request the same

You and your mind start to separate
Oh how can you end this equation
This is disaster and not fate
Yeah you must stop this invasion

You remember the gun
That he keeps in the drawer next to your hand
And as you are ignored you open the drawer
And the guns now in your hand
Yeah you turn to his side his hands are all tied
Your feeling denied
But you cant help feeling sorry for him
As you blow him away

You quickly gather your homework
That he assigned today
There’s red blood on your white shirt
As you hide your gun away

He didn’t have someone to love
Yeah so so what you did is ok
He doesn’t have a boy or girl
Yeah or wife to love now anyway

He’s the silent professor
He’s the silent professor
Yeah he’s the silent professor
He’s the silent professor
