I thought I was important till the day Max started school
He used to look in awe at me at just how much I knew
But now he’s got my marker there’s a new kid on the block
This kid is called his teacher and she knows an awful lot
The questions I now face at home get harder by the day
As Max grows up I thank the teachers for all’≈°√É‚Äû’¬†the things they say
Max still thinks I’m important I’ve just had a change in’≈°√É‚Äû’¬†role
I’m now a student just like him remembering’≈°√É‚Äû’¬†all I know
As I’≈°√É‚Äû’¬†grew up my teachers taught me all I needed to know’≈°√É‚Äû’¬†
Today they are helping Max’≈°√É‚Äû’¬†attain and grow and grow and grow…
