Jarod: Anything you want me to play in particular?
Donnie: Just go with it! Anything that comes to mind!
Jarod (singing. Teacher Teacher:) Just when I thought I finally learned my lesson well,
There was more to this than meets the eye,
And for what little they actually taught me,
only time will tell if I'm to survive, oh yeah,
Syd my teacher, can you teach me?
Can you tell me what I need to know?
Syd my teacher, can you reach me?
I wanna know whats really going on, oh yeah,
So the years go on and on while you pretend nothings wrong,
what you know was soon forgotten,
they took the best years of my life,
tried to tell me what was right,
So I ran away with nothing, oh yeah,
Syd my teacher, can you teach me?
How can I tell if I'm right or wrong?
Syd my teacher, can you reach me?
I wanna know whats really going on
Syd my teacher, can you teach me?
Syd my teacher, do you reach me?
Syd my teacher, can you teach me?
Syd my teacher, oh yeah
Donny: Hey! That was cool!
Jarod: Thank you.
Max: I think we already have Jarod and a hit song!
Donnie: Wow, Jarod! That gives me an idea. Hey guys! What if we called the title Teacher, Teacher?
Larry: Sounds great! We've been writing for the younger crowds lately and that would fit
in perfectly. What do you say Jarod?
Jarod: Sounds great!
Donnie: Great! Welcome to the band Jarod!!
They all shake hands with Jarod.
