The Lyrics

This parody is based on the fact that when watching the "DJ" music video, I misheard the chorus as "I am a teacher."
I'm home, have no job, until I'm back from school
I make your tests easy, real easy
Teahc boys and girl back there, at my school
Go to school dances
Sass me, your grade goes down
I'm an educator, don't you know?

I am a teacher, I don't work today
Don't make a sound no, don't make a sound, no, oh, ooh
I am a teacher, I don't work today
Don't make a sound no, don't make a sound, no, oh, ooh

I am a teacher, I don't work today
Not till September (hiss-hiss)
The kids hate me, oh

Each day's a weekend, no more grading them papers
After school, getting detention
Miss eating trhe Lunch Lady's food

I am a teacher, I don't work today
Don't make a sound no, don't make a sound, no, oh, ooh

I am a teacher, I don't work today
Not till September (hiss-hiss)
The kids hate me

I am a teacher, I don't work today
Don't make a sound no, don't make a sound
I am a teacher, I don't work today
Don't make a sound no, don't make a sound
I am a teacher, I don't work today
Don't make a sound no, don't make a sound (hiss-hiss)

Time flies at the detention
Geting F's breaks your heart
The Principal's my boss and approves all the school dances
I am a teacher, yes I am a teacher

I am a teacher
I am a teacher
I am a teacher, sadly
I am a teacher
I am a teacher, I don't work today
I am a teacher

SOmetimes when I listen to the song, I still think it sounds more like "teacher" than "DJ." Your parody really is off the hook. Keep it up.
