I had a good one - but the lyrics are kinda dirty. I'll dig it up and maybe post it if I get brave!

Otherwise - good job on the Cheers! ESL tune...

"Getting Better" by the Beatles

[Deconstructor]

Welcome to the EFL jungle
We've got fun 'n' grammar games
We got everything you want
Honey, we know the verbs and the names
We are the teachers that can find
Whatever you may need
If you got the money, honey
We got your English disease

Welcome to the EFL jungle
It gets worse here everyday
Ya learn ta live like an animal
In the jungle where grammar we play
If you got a hunger for adverbs and adjectives
You'll take it eventually
You can have anything you want
But you better not take it from me (cause I don�t know what I�m doing).

A standing O for that bit Decon

We fly tonight for Singapore
First teaching in place of law
I've fallen for Asian 'fare'
lured her to my stinky lair!

Drank with all the Chinamen
Ate in sewers of Bangkok
I danced along a colored wind
Taught grammar to a Russian Tsar
Mother must say goodbye to me

We fly tonight for Singapore
Don't fall asleep while you're ashore
Cross your heart and hope to die
When you hear the students try
Tell of deeds done yesterday
Life is but a counter strike
glowing dull in dead of night
Back from Hell
When you hear the bell ring
You must hit the bar with me.

Bring him down with local beer
Till his speech is hard without fear,
From now on boys this box house's your home
So teach away boys.

We fly tonight for Singapore
Take your worksheets from the floor
Wash your mouth out by the door
This city's air is full of iron ore!
Every location turns to steam
We all have our city of dreams
Fill your pockets up with earth
Get yourself a dollar's worth
Away boys, away, boys, teach away

The DOS is a one-armed dwarf
He's an infamous cad from the north
In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is King
And so we do the teaching thing.

When I was but twenty and two
I was broke, debts by the slew

One day unloading a truck
I came upon a piece of luck
A small tabloid teach in China ad
Never knowing I was had

Although I'd been in jail
what I found made me pale

A small man gave me a drink
And the whole world went pink

A nymph I did meet
On my taxes I could cheat
Every night in the bar
Oh heaven it was not far

But my, the people did stare
And this I could not bear!
I left homewards with my chick
Low day she gave me the flick
She's now a citizen
I'm too overly broke again.

Now I'm back unloading a truck
Feeling a little down on my luck.

Couldn't resist having a turn. This is to the tune of Queen's 'We Are The Champions'. (Note: TEFLers should be pronounced TEF-lers)

I've lost my dues
Time after time
I've taught my sentence
In prose and in rhyme
And bad mistakes
I've taught a few
I've had my share of evil language schools
But I've come through

We are the TEFLers - my friends
And we'll keep on teaching - till the end
We are the TEFLers
We are the TEFLers
No time for losers
'Cause we are the TEFLers - of the world

I've taken my classes
And my roll calls
You brought me pain and the humiliation that goes with it
I thank you all

But it's been no Dead Poet�s Soc
I�ve got so much to lose
I consider it a choice between this and the rat race
And I know what I choose

We are the TEFLers - my friends
And we'll keep on teaching - till the end
We are the TEFLers
We are the TEFLers
No time for losers
'Cause we are the TEFLers - of the world
