The Police - Don't Stand So Close To Me

Thank you my friend SGT (Join to see) for sharing the music video of The Police performing "Don't Stand So Close To Me" in honor of the fact that on September 28, 1980, The Police were at No.1 on the UK singles chart with 'Don't Stand So Close To Me' the group's third No.1.
I saw and heard them play this song at an outdoor festival at Darmstadt, Germany in the early 1980s.

"Don't Stand So Close To Me" written by Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner CBE, known as Sting.
Lyrics
"Young teacher, the subject
Of schoolgirl fantasy
She wants him so badly
Knows what she wants to be
Inside her there's longing
This girl's an open page
Book marking - she's so close now
This girl is half his age

Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me

Her friends are so jealous
You know how bad girls get
Sometimes it's not so easy
To be the teacher's pet
Temptation, frustration
So bad it makes him cry
Wet bus stop, she's waiting
His car is warm and dry

Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me

Loose talk in the classroom
To hurt they try and try
Strong words in the staffroom
The accusations fly
It's no use, he sees her
He starts to shake and cough
Just like the old man in
That book by Nabokov

Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me

Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me"

Amazed some mouthwash company hasn't used this in an ad.

Excellent song to start the day.
