Oh Crap! – Musings of an Unperfect Mommy

Music Monday – ABBA

January 30, 2017

Every time I think I’ve talked about a song – I haven’t. I think I’ve just got a lot of posts in my head that never actually get written down. I’ve often said I need a portable recorder and a microphone attached to my collar and that way I’d remember what I was thinking. :-P

Anywho, today is a throwback if ever there was one – ABBA’s “When I Kissed The Teacher”. It is a fabulous song about a girl’s crush on a teacher and the day she decided to act on that crush. The music is so positive and you can’t help but sing along. Okay, I sing along to all of my ABBA favorites. God help the person who’s in the car with me when that happens.

This song takes me way back to when we lived in London and I was about 13 or 14 and yes, I did have a major crush on a teacher back then. I also had a crush on a really cute guy as well – all the girls crushed on him. Who hasn’t had a crush at one time or another – no matter what your age! Now, the video for this song I don’t like – I prefer the video in my head because it’s more real. A classroom of teens, a cute teacher, and the class laughing and screaming when the kiss happens. Yeah – that’s real. Anyway, I don’t think this needs any commentary so I’ll let it be. But do give it a listen and let it take you back. In my case waaaaay back. :-P

When I Kissed The Teacher – ABBA

Everybody screamed when I kissed the teacher
And they must have thought they dreamed when I kissed the teacher
All my friends at school
They had never seen the teacher blush, he looked like a fool
Nearly petrified ’cause he was taken by surprise
When I kissed the teacher
Couldn’t quite believe his eyes, when I kissed the teacher
My whole class went wild
As I held my breath, the world stood still, but then he just smiled
I was in the seventh heaven when I kissed the teacher

One of these days
Gonna tell him I dream of him every night
One of these days
Gonna show him I care, gonna teach him a lesson alright

I was in a trance when I kissed the teacher
Suddenly I took the chance when I kissed the teacher
Leaning over me, he was trying to explain the laws of geometry
And I couldn’t help it, I just had to kiss the teacher

One of these days
Gonna tell him I dream of him every night
One of these days
Gonna show him I care, gonna teach him a lesson alright

What a crazy day, when I kissed the teacher
All my sense had flown away when I kissed the teacher
My whole class went wild
As I held my breath, the world stood still, but then he just smiled
I was in the seventh heaven when I kissed the teacher
