1] Oh, the nation's tempers are growing short,
What with gas approaching a buck a quart;
So it's now time to seek
"transportation publique"
On the highways after all.
2] Well, the sign says "double capacity",
But I don't think there's any room for me;
'Cause we're now [holy SMOKES!]
Hauling three times the folks--
It's a small bus after all.
R} It's a small bus after all,
It's a small bus after all,
It's a small bus after all,
It's a DARNED small bus!
3] There are people jammed in from door to door,
People stacked like cordwood across the floor,
And there's even a chap
In the darn driver's lap--
It's a small bus after all.
4] Have they called my stop yet? It's hard to hear
When you've got someone's elbow in your ear;
Til the fuel crisis lifts,
We'll be breathing in shifts
On this small bus after all.
R} It's a small bus after all,
It's a small bus after all,
It's a small bus after all,
It's a DARNED small bus!
