* "Don't Stand so Close to Me" runs along the seduction of the innocent lines. Though the girl is almost an adult, the taboo of a teacher-student relationship sparks creepy feelings, and if you're a teacher, it would probably creep you out how relentless the girl is, waiting in the rain at the bus stop so he'll pick her up.

** This song is actually about a man whose life is miserable, and he's going insane because of it. His family is always arguing, he has to get up in the morning and go to a job that he hates. The lyrics "Many miles away/There's a shadow on the door/Of a cottage on the shore/Of a dark Scottish lake" is actually an indication that there is a monster rising out of his conscience because he is losing his sanity.
