Van Halen – ‘Hot for Teacher’ live on Jimmy Kimmel!

We’ve got it bad for Van Halen!

Love them or hate them, you can’t help but dance and stomp your feet when ‘Hot For Teacher’ by legends Van Halen comes on. Well, that and sit in absolute awe at what Eddie Van Halen can do with a guitar.

David Lee Roth has the energy he had 30 years ago and let me tell you – it’s infectious! No wonder they were the biggest band on the planet at one time, easily selling out entire arenas. Eddie’s still an absolute god on guitar, and makes it look absolutely effortless.

Guitar World magazine ranked Eddie’s solo in ‘Hot For Teacher’ #46 of all-time.

We didn’t think it was possible for Van Halen to get any better, but they have. With David Lee Roth at the helm again, the boys are ready to take over the world!

Van Halen’s performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live featuring David Lee Roth functioned as an announcement of their official reunion, new album, and tour.

If you love this live performance of ‘Hot For Teacher’ as much as we do, you can catch Van Halen on tour this summer in support of their new live album, Tokyo Dome Live in Concert.

We’re loving that these bands refuse to slow down and fade away! We can’t wait to see Van Halen and be part of the frenzy ourselves!

+ Hot For Teacher lyrics +

Oh yeah, t-t-teacher stop that screamin’
Teacher don’t you see? Don’t wanna be no uptown fool
Maybe I should go to hell but I am doing well
Teacher needs to see me after school

I think of all the education that I’ve missed
But then my homework was never quite like this

Ow! Got it bad, got it bad, got it bad
I’m hot for teacher
I’ve got it bad, so bad
I’m hot for teacher

{Hey, I heard you missed us, we’re back!
I brought my pencil
Give me something to write on, man
Whoa}

I heard about your lessons but lessons are so cold
I didn’t know about this school
Little girl from Cherry Lawn, how can you be so bold?
How did you know that golden rule?

I think of all the education that I’ve missed
But then my homework was never quite like this

Whoa! Got it bad, got it bad, got it bad
I’m hot for teacher
I’ve got it bad, so bad
I’m hot for teacher, woh

{Oh man, I think the clock is slow
What are you doin’ this weekend?
I don’t feel tardy
Class dismissed}

Ooh, yeah
I’ve got it bad, got it bad, got it bad
I’m hot for teacher

Whoa
Oh! Yes I’m hot
Oh my God!
Whoo!
