Sittin' in the front row
|
Mary of the fourth form
|
Turnin' all the boys on
|
She's turnin' all their heads around
|
Hitchin' up her short skirt
|
Stretchin' out her long legs
|
Pullin' up her stockings
|
She's combing out her black hair
|
Starin' at the teacher
|
Openin' her lips, wide
|
Shiftin' in her seat yeah,
|
She slowly moves her hips aside
|
|
But in the middle of the night
|
She waits for Mom to turn out the light
|
Her make-up's on and her jeans are skin tight
|
And she's heading to the Pillar Bar
|
She walks into the pool hall room
|
The musics playing and you can see in the gloom
|
The boys are hanging out around table number five
|
|
|
Johnnie looks alright tonight she thinks
|
He gives her a smoke and he buys her a drink
|
Shoots a frame and they head off into the night.

Mary of the fourth form.
|
|
Teacher's losing control
|
Thankfully the bell rings
|
Mary's left all alone
|
With no one but the teacher
|
She quickly drops her pencil
|
And slowly bends to get it
|
Teacher is a natural man
|
His hand moves out to touch her
|
She straightens and looks around now
|
She laughs and leaves the room, yeah
|
Heartbreak for the teacher
|
Sweet dreams for young Mary
|
|
But in the middle of the night
|
She waits until Dad to put out the light
|
Her make-up's on and her jeans are skin tight
|
And she's headed to the Pillar Bar
|
|
She walks into the pool hall room
|
The musics playing you can see in the gloom
|
The boys are hanging out around table number five
|
Johnnie looks great tonight, she thinks
|
He gives her a smoke and he buys her a drink
|
Shoots off a frame and they head off into the night.
|
|
Mary of the fourth form.
|
Mary of the fourth form.

Mary of the fourth form.
