Rufus Wainwright - The Art Teacher lyrics
[Rufus Wainwright - The Art Teacher lyrics]
There I was in uniform
Looking at the art teacher
I was just a girl then
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
But never could I tell him 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
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
Here I am in this uniformish
Pant-suit sort of thing
Thinking of the art teacher
I was just a girl then
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
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
But never could I tell him 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
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
Here I am in this uniformish
Pant-suit sort of thing
Thinking of the art teacher
I was just a girl then
Never have I loved since then
No, never have I loved any other man
