Van Halen - Hot For Teacher
Posted by Steve.
We got Guitar Hero World Tour on Friday and it feels like it's been on the go non stop for the last 70 hours!!! I commandeered the drum set - it's fun but I'm completely useless at it! As Snowy pointed out, she can't believe someone that listens to as much music as I do can't hear the beat in a song!
I did really well with "Hail to the Freaks" by a band called the Beatsteaks (only missed 4 beats) and I'm pretty good at "Beat It" by Michael Jackson. I say pretty good but that is below average compared to the scores Snowy was getting - but I can do awesome drum fills!!!
And boy did I struggle to finish "Trapped Under Ice" by Metallica, on the forth attempt and I nearly crashed and burned on that one too. And I'm telling you now, it won't matter how much practice I get I will never complete Motorhead's "Overkill", "B.Y.O.B." by System of a Down or the video on display here!
With this song I can't even get to the vocals - I have a complete lack of hand to eye co-ordination! I love the mini Van Halen in this video and all my teachers at school looked like that!! How uncomfortable does 3/4 of the band look doing the dancing about half way through the video? It reminds me of a dance sequence from Red Dwarf, and I'm sure somebody will come up with the name of the episode!
Spoken:
Oh wow, man !
Wait a second man. whaddaya think the teachers gonna look like this year ?
My butt, man !
T-t-teacher stop that screaming, teacher don't you see ?
Don't wanna be no uptown fool.
Maybe I should go to hell, but I'm doin well,
Teacher needs to see me after school.
I think of all the education that I missed.
But then my homework was never quite like this.
Got it bad, got it bad, got it bad,
I'm hot for teacher.
I got it bad, so bad,
I'm hot for teacher.
Spoken:
Hey, I heard you missed us, were back !
I brought my pencil
Gimme something to write on, man
I heard about your lessons, but lessons are so cold.
I know about this school.
Little girl from cherry lane, how did you get so bold ?
How did you know that golden rule ?
I think of all the education that I missed.
But then my homework was never quite like this.
Got it bad, got it bad, got it bad,
I'm hot for teacher.
I got it bad, so bad,
I'm hot for teacher.

Oh man, I think the clock is slow
I don't feel tardy
