The Snippet: Ok this is pretty creepy. The Song: Ok this is pretty illegal.

*"She's feeling like a spider in a cage".* FELIPE!!

"you love me but you won't come save me" legit the last 15 minutes of every disney movie

it's just so funny to me how she makes it obvious she's not trying to pass this topic as a cute fairytale and people still don't get it. she literally put a f*cking bug at the start to make the audience uncomfortable. she put an evil laugh to express there's someone behind the thoughts of the young child, meaning an adult it's manipulating the way this child thinks. she's literally expressing how a young child will still be immature no matter how "beyond their age" they think they are. the child goes from saying "i know I'm young but my mind is well beyond my years" thinking they had the situation under control to "f*ck u don't u leave me here" at the end being thrown away when the manipulation was over.

Everyone asking " _where is the lyric man_ " but no one ask " _how are the lyric man??_ "

“She’s feeling like a spider in a cage” Phillipe: Same, I can relate

Elita killed that scene, damn i love herrr

Someone should sing this at a school talent show and lock eyes with a random teacher and make it weird and uncomfortable in the room

Unpopular opinion: Teachers Pet is the most underrated song in K-12

Kidzbop Karen: my kids can’t hear me because they’re listening to kidzbop The kids in the car:

If a teacher's trying to get you into something definately not school-appropiate, get out of that situation as fast you can.

i swear the same four or three people keep disliking the songs from k-12

As a sexual abuse victim, this song is not "goals" it's dark, disturbing and creepy, and it should be. Sexual abuse of any kind whether it be from an adult or an older peer, is scary, and lonely, it makes you question yourself, who you are, it makes relationships of any kind impossible and it can take a lifetime to get over from. If you truly think a relationship with an adult of any kind is goals I think you should seek help or something. I personally love this song because it sends a message, However if you think it glorifies or reinforces your views in any way, again you're wrong, It was made to show you how abuse can be seen from the victim, who has been manipulated to feel this way. Although I don't feel this way because I wasn't fully aware of what was happening to me. A lot do, they feel as though it is their fault, or that they're special somehow. Which isn't true. (they are special but not to the abuser in the way they think). Okay, sorry for the rant just had to get this out.

*when you can’t find the random guy who posts the lyrics*

i love how yungelita got to show off her knife skills

This song literally made me cry honestly in my top 3: 1. Show & tell 2.Teachers pet 3.nurse office

This song is about grooming. Don’t trust any adult who claims they “love” you that way.

MUCH BETTER AS EXPECTED 😫💗

I'm so used to listening to these snippets that listening to the full song feels weird 😂

Melanie 2015: all the best people are crazy Melanie 2019: don’t call me crazy Edit: I said Melanie not cry baby

I love Melanie Martinez

Me: **finds out K-12 is not available on Philippine cinemas & too broke to buy the album** Melanie: oh boo don't worry **uploads the whole movie and the songs** All hail our kind hearted Melanie, best day everrr

I'm pretty sure most girls in their pre teen years heard an older man saying that they're so beyond their years or that they're so mature for their age in a sexual tone disguised as an intellectual one. And if you didn't, I know many girls envy you.

"If I'm so special, why am I a secret?"

jEssiCa diD u sleEp wiEH yOur godDaMn tEAcHer?

Billie: I make weird songs Melanie: *Hold my cereal spider*

The whole atmosphere of this song is so threatening. It's screaming "Watch out, don't trust him" oh god

Comments are multiplying faster than the smart kids in my maths class

I'm actually not uncomfortable with this song lmao, I only ever get uncomfortable with these topics when they're sexualized, and presented as something normal and okay. I love the fact that Melanie basically made this the most sinister sounding song on her album, like it should be. It disgusts me when TV shows mainly, show teacher/student relationships as some kind of "forbidden love" trope, or as something hot. It's not, it's a perfect example of how an adult can genuinely manipulate a young adult, and fuck them up. It's tragic and horrible, so this song slaps and also presents this situation perfectly.

the movie version of this song was crazy lmao, me and my friends were confused at angelita at first edit: im glad i related to people haha

People think this song is weird and I agree. Because that's what this song should make you feel ... discomfort. When girls are abused by old people, many people say "but she was looking for him," "I heard she was flirting with him, so she deserves it." This song is narrated from the perspective of cry baby looking at a girl being manipulated by an adult man, her teacher. She is not able to give consent and the girl's mind is easy to manipulate, unlike this OLD ADULT who knows exactly what he's doing and he manipulates her mind so that she thinks he loves her, that he wants a future with her, all that to treat her like his pet. . It is NEVER the child who is to blame because they are not mature enough, nor is it legal. It is always the fault of the adult men who date minor girls and I love this song because that is the message Melanie is trying to convey. Listening to this song I feel completely angry because old men really manipulate other girls and use them, this is more common than everyone thinks and I have already seen it in my environment, in my own school, with an adult teacher. It's disgusting. Fucking grown ass men ... start dating people your age, don't manipulate the younger girls and then blame them for YOU did to them and make an excuse that "she wanted it" she is a young child and that's still illegal. Stop blaming the victim.

Every song on this album is a bop I can't pick a favorite

I was 11 or 12 when I was almost sexually abused by my friend's older brother. He was 17 or 18 & just started randomly complimenting me & interacting with me whenever I was over at their house. I was confused at first but grew to like it since he was older & kinda cute(to an 11/12-year-old, so maybe not that cute) & it felt nice to be told I was smart & pretty when I was being bullied so much at school. It all came to a head at my friend's birthday party at her house. I was never a confident child so I spent most of the party inside while the other kids played in the backyard. He came up to me & we talked for a bit before he asked me to come to his room so that he could show me something. I was kinda nervous & something in my gut told me not to, but I had such positive memories associated with him I felt I had to. I was about to go into his room when my angel of a mother came into the house looking for me & saved me from being sexually abused by him. Unfortunately, my friend(his sister), wasn't as lucky. Years later we learned from their stepmother that he had been sneaking into his little sister's room & sexually assaulting her in the middle of the night. His parents ended up disowning him & haven't heard from him since. I'm not really sure how to end this comment but thanks for listening to my childhood trauma. Edit, 10/1/21: It's been about a year since I posted this comment, & I just wanted to thank you all for your kind words & sympathies. It's been a very difficult year for me, my father passed away due to a terminal illness, but getting the occasional notification & seeing your sweet comments have really helped me get through some rough days. I'm doing better, I started seeing a therapist some weeks after I posted this comment, & have been slowly but surely working through my thoughts & emotions regarding this experience & my traumas. I had felt so guilty for so long, thinking that maybe if my friend's brother had access to me maybe he wouldn't have done what he did to his sister. I still feel like this sometimes, but I now understand that his horrible actions are his fault & noone else's. A few months ago I ran into my friend's father at the grocery store. We chatted for a bit, he said she was doing okay & we left it at that. I actually had a dream that I ran into her & told her I was so sorry for what she went through. I'm not sure what I would actually say if I saw her, maybe one day I'll know. But for now, I'm taking it a day at a time & doing pretty good. Remeber, your worth is not defined by the pains & traumas inflicted upon you by others.

the song is almost over and im still looking for lyrics

Omg the part of this song during the movie is so so so scaring!!!!😭😭😭 It reflects so much on issues of a twisted relationship between manipulating teacher and naive students!!! Really can't love you more Mel!!!

TWENTY ØNE PILOTS : *pet cheetah* MELANIE MARTINEZ : *Teacher's Pet*

“you have wife and kids you see them daily, don’t know why you even need me” i felt this on a personal level

That feeling when everyone is asking about the lyrics and i put the lyrics two times but nobody saw or noticed it

This is the darkest song on the album and I love it

I really hate the sound of the fly at the beggining but I feel that that's the way of making the concept even stronger, like a gross and annoying topic. And I love it.

I love this song because you can hear the hurt and the anger in her voice as she sings and it gets so addicting.

"if i pass this quiz will you give me your babies." that hit me ngl

I didn’t come across one song that was average. All of the songs on K-12 are PHENOMENAL. So proud of Melanie and her entire team for pulling off such an amazing project. Pure masterpiece. 💕🥺

Melanie? Martinez Hotel ? Trivago Teachers ? Pet Lyrics ? *Zero*

The amount of people romanticizing this is just-

Roses are red Violets are blue I'm looking for the lyrics And so are you

0:07 I thought there was a bug flying in my ear lmao

"I know I'm young, but my mind is well beyond my years" I freaking love that line 😆

why is people disliking? this is hella catchy

Lyric chain: Caught the teacher giving his eyes to a student

This song is really important for girls who think that their teacher, or any man much older than them while they’re still very young for that matter, really love them. This song can help them realize that they are being taken advantage of, and that what they’re experiencing isn’t real love at all. Melanie always does nothing but speak facts!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ edit: it's been 3 years for the love of god I KNOW IT CAN HAPPEN TO BOYS TOO. I said girls because 1. the victim in this song is a girl and 2. I unfortunately have trauma from a community full of mostly girls who idolized relationships like this. please stop.

Where’s the random lyric guy?! 🙄 EDIT: How are you random lyric guy? 🤔

This song is definitely one of my favorite. Melanie expresses how it is not okay to be in a relationship with the teacher. "I know I´m young but my mind is well beyond my years" means that a female student is not aware of what is she saying. Maybe the teacher is giving her good grades for nothing and she thinks he likes her, but in reality, he is just manipulative. He has a wife and kids at home, but he acts like they don´t exist and that is a sad story.

This song is super meaningful and many people don't realise it. They're all saying "this is such a catchy song" but it's more than just a catchy song. It's about abuse. That isn't a joke. All those poor females who get abused think they're actually being loved by someone but it's not love. It's them using young women. It's really disgusting to know that that is a think in our world. Melanie brings a lot of good advice and people don't appreciate her for it and it's super sad to me. She deserves more than this. I'm really happy that not only is she a good person but she's spreading good vibes on the way. Not only did she give us an opportunity to watch her film free, INCLUDE NO ADS (that's my girl UvU), and she also gives her viewers ADVICE that's super touching and should be spread throughout our world because those problems are becoming a pain now. Love you, Melanie!

Who else in binging all the songs cause they've been waiting so long!!? 😍

Mélanie Martinez: makes this song Also Melanie: for legal reasons that's a joke Edit: tysm for the likes

K so hear me out. In the movie, Cry Baby's friend (I forgot her name) licks a lollipop. I think we all know what that symbolizes her licking. Immediately after she likes the lollipop, she shrinks, and the teacher is able to toy with her more easily. I think her shrinking is symbolizing her dignity, and the second she loses her dignity, the teacher is able to treat her however he desires, becuz it is usually our dignity that stops us from doing "those things". I am probably wrong, but it was just a thought.

I'm just scrolling down to find lyrics don't mind me

I'm probably the only one who thought the teacher looked pretty damn fine to me... *Edit: yes, I mean the actor Marton Behr. I apologize for my horrible wording.*

Yo I just realized something and I'm *shooketh* OK so until some point, crybaby and k-12 are happening at the same time. In pity party, Crybaby is nine, and k-12 started in kindergarten when she was five. I don't know exactly were they stop happening at the same time since we don't know how old she is in mad hatter. As I said, in pity party she is nine, and she's also nine in nurses office. If you're still reading, here's a cookie 🍪

"I know I'm young but my mind is well beyond my years." i have no idea why but i feel like these words are connected to my life.

Tag you’re it: Who are you? Teachers pet: I’m you but better!

2:00 I always love the part when she says "don't call me crazy" With a creepy tone 😂💕

0:01 when im trying to sleep but the mosquito loves disturbing me

pov: You're the teacher's wife, you watch with terror and betrayal as metal chains tighten around his wrist. You loved him, you needed him. You loved another version of him, the version that was the father of your children, your husband, your bright, caring husband. You watch as the sirens of the police accompany his screams, his guilty screams filling your head with the tiniest piece of doubt, 'Maybe this is a misconception, He wouldn't-' you stop. It's obvious. This man is no longer human. This man can no longer be described as human, for he is something far far more sinister.

SPOILER FOR THE FILM! Is no one gonna talk about the fact that she killed the teacher? 😂 EDIT: Yes I know it was Angelita who killed him I just couldn't remember her name at the time of the original post. Also thank you for all the likes I wasn't expecting such a reaction ❤️

*"If I'm so special why am I secret?"*

"JESSICA, did you sleep with your god damn TEACHER"

We have a PE teacher at my school who is a creep. He is in his 50's or 60's, gives girls nicknames and has literally walked _into_ the changing rooms multiple times saying "Don't worry I'm not looking, just grabbing stuff from the back cupboard". I was unlucky enough to get his class this year and even though people have complained to the school about him the other teachers don't do anything. He was on leave for the first two terms we were supposed to have him due to 'injuries' but someone said one of the teachers let slip that he was dealing with 'legal matters'. Last term (before the holidays that I'm now in) he has called my friends 'Tammykins' and 'Gemmakins' and 'Ryleekins', told an ex-friend multiple times that she has a 'beautiful smile', raved on and on about how he was 'so lucky to have two girls in the class with the name Audrey' and complimented the girls about how they are 'superstars' whenever they remember to bring/wear sports uniform (the girls sport uniform shorts are _really_ short and the tops are tight). I can't wait until this year is over. Update: I got in his class AGAIN ASFIXIDJDHEEU

I’m so happy something serious like this is address. Melanie Martinez is the greatest artist out there and to see her bringing this up makes me admire her even more. I applaud her for that.

"If Im so special,why am a secret?" ♪♪♫♫♫♫♪♪♪♪♪♪ "Because I would be in jail" "Biting my nail" "My reputation means a lot" "And you would cry just too much baabyy"🖤

When Melanie said "I know I'm young but my mind is well beyond my years" I felt that.

I love how her music's lyrics is all about sensitive issues that very few artists dare to sing about

Where's this one guy with the lyrics?

ill keep saying this. teachers pet is underrated. nurses office is everyone’s top :( update : 2/3 years later it’s 2022 and it’s finally getting the recognition it deserves 🥳

**makes eye contact with the "cute" teacher for 0.3 seconds** me:

2:10 My favorite part about this song is the laughs. It shows how evil pedophiles are, comparing them to super villains.

One of the darkest songs of 2019

Me: God the story behind this song is so horrible and awful Also me: this is the best song on this album

Tag, You’re it: Who are you? Teacher’s pet: I’m you, But Stronger!

This song came out EXACTLY when I needed it. I was very nearly in this situation and thinking about the lyrics helped me realize that (and insisted that) it was a bad idea.

Teachers pet is my fave song it’s a whole bop y’all just don’t want to admit it 😳

A R T E, te espere tanto tiempo y ahora te tenemos de nuevo, aún estoy en shock, No puedo dejar de llorar te amo

Lyric person yooooo where u at bruh ;c I'm losing hope here

Man, this song hits different when you know the meaning behind it. Teachers manipulate children like they're animals and make them think intimate/romantic relationships are okay, and it's disgusting. I really hope no one here goes through something like that, and if you are, I'm always here for you to talk, and you *need* to tell someone *ASAP*

I thought this song would be about that one student who's always like "DiDnT wE hAvE hOmEwOrK???" right at the end of the lesson

The snippet of this sounded amazing but the whole song is far more darker and deeper than I thought it’d be!

Me finding the lyrics : *DIGUSTING* Me hearing the music: *OH GOD I LOVE THIS*

friendly reminder, especially to minors: this song is NOT condoning teacher/student relationships. many of the key lyrics are specifically expressing that these sorts of relationships are not okay, and never will be. this song is not "goals", nor is it something that should ever be glorified, romanticized, or even normalized in any way. any teacher that expresses this kind of interest in you is a predator and is specifically trying to manipulate you. DO NOT FALL FOR IT.

teacher : *praises me with a pat on the back* me: IF IM SO SPECIAL WHY AM I SECRET?

If Mel doesn't get a Grammy with this album & an Oscar for the movie then I'm suing.

why are people posting about the damn lyrics lol *i memorized them* ;)

I’m so sorry to anyone who has been a victim of grooming or taken advantage of by an adult or teacher, this is not something to romanticize.

omg, yesss, love you Melanie k-12 is the best💖💖💖💖

She worked so hard for this album! And this song is awesome! Good job Melanie 💕 Edit: omg i just realize i have so many likes :o i cant believe it thanks!

Só digo uma coisa, valeu a espera por K - 12 💕
