《An English Teacher (Original London Cast Recording)》歌词

[00:00:01] An English Teacher

[00:00:03] He's going in the Army

[00:00:05] It's the best thing he could do

[00:00:06] Now we're free to start to do

[00:00:08] What we wanted to

[00:00:09] Albert, Albert, A-A-A-Albert!

[00:00:15] I remember how you told me

[00:00:17] I should trust you for a year

[00:00:19] It would just be for a year

[00:00:20] But it's eight years, Albert!

[00:00:24] Eight long years, Albert!

[00:00:26] Albert:

[00:00:27] It takes time to go to business like this,Rosie

[00:00:29] Rosie:

[00:00:29] It was only a sideline

[00:00:31] That's what you said

[00:00:32] You just needed some money

[00:00:34] That's what you said

[00:00:35] You were going to college and get ahead

[00:00:38] Instead of being a music business bum

[00:00:42] You were going to NYU

[00:00:45] And become an English teacher

[00:01:00] An English teacher, an English teacher.

[00:01:06] If only you'd been an English teacher

[00:01:13] We'd have a little apartment in Queens

[00:01:18] You'd get a summer vacation

[00:01:21] And we would know what life means

[00:01:25] A man who's got his masters

[00:01:29] Is really someone

[00:01:32] How proud I'd be if you had become one

[00:01:39] It could have been such a wonderful life

[00:01:44] I could have been Mrs. Peterson

[00:01:47] Mrs. Albert Peterson,

[00:01:50] Mrs. Phi Beta Kappa Peterson,

[00:01:53] The English teacher's wife!

[00:02:06] It was goodbye Jeffery Josser

[00:02:10] Hello William Morris

[00:02:14] Goodbye NYU,

[00:02:17] Hello all ALMAELOU

[00:02:20] 'Cause when you wrote Canard's first hit

[00:02:24] Agha-bagha-boo

[00:02:26] Then I knew that was it

[00:02:29] You were through with English

[00:02:33] Forever...

[00:02:38] An English teacher is really someone

[00:02:45] How proud I'd be if you had become one

[00:02:53] It could have been such a wonderful life

[00:02:57] I could have been Mrs. Peterson

[00:03:00] Mrs. Albert Peterson,

[00:03:03] Mrs. Phi Beta Kappa Peterson,

[00:03:06] The English teacher's wife
