The Art Teacher (Live From the Artists Den/2012)
There I was in uniform
Looking at the art teacher
I was just a girl then
And never have I loved since then
He was not that much older than I was
He had, taken our class to the Metropolitan Museum
He asked us what our favorite work of art was
And never could I tell it was him
Oh, I wish I could tell him
Oh, I wish I could have told him
I looked at the Rubens and Rembrandts
I liked the John Singer Sargents
He told me he liked Turner
And never have I turned since then
No, never have I turned to any other man
All this having been said
I married an executive company head
All this having been done
A Turner
I own one
And here I am in this uniformish pant-suit sort of thing
Thinking of the art teacher
I was just a girl then
And never have I loved since then
No, never have I loved any other man
Looking at the art teacher
I was just a girl then
And never have I loved since then
He was not that much older than I was
He had, taken our class to the Metropolitan Museum
He asked us what our favorite work of art was
And never could I tell it was him
Oh, I wish I could tell him
Oh, I wish I could have told him
I looked at the Rubens and Rembrandts
I liked the John Singer Sargents
He told me he liked Turner
And never have I turned since then
No, never have I turned to any other man
All this having been said
I married an executive company head
All this having been done
A Turner
I own one
And here I am in this uniformish pant-suit sort of thing
Thinking of the art teacher
I was just a girl then
And never have I loved since then
No, never have I loved any other man
