Teacher's Pet

"Teacher's Pet" is a popular song written by Joe Lubin and published in 1958. The song was introduced in the film of the same name by Doris Day, in 1958. While the lyrics are sung from the point of a view of a student in love with a teacher, in the film Day played a teacher romanced by an adult student (Clark Gable). Day's version was also issued as a single on Columbia Records, reaching #56 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and #36 on the Cash Box Top 100 chart. The song was performed by Parker Posey in the 1997 film Waiting for Guffman.
