Is this the right bus?
Or is it another one?
Caught in a downpour,
No umbrella over my head.

Open my eyes, look up to the skies; why me?
I'm just a poor boy, I need the sympathy,
Because they never come never go,
A lot of noise and very slow.

Any way the rain falls,
God it really matters to me, to me.

Mama, I just missed the bus,
I really ran but he didn't see me now he's gone.
Mama, rain had just begun,
And now I've gone and gotten myself wet.

Mama oh when will the next one be?
If I'm not back at home this time tomorrow,
Carry on, Carry on 'cause the corporation don't care.

Waiting on my next bus,
Rain's running down my spine visions blurring all the time.
Goodbye everybody I've got to go,
But my bus won't come and now I've got pneumonia.

Mama oh I don't want to die,
I sometimes wish I'd never bought a transcard.

I see a little silhouette of a bus,
Corporation! Corporation! Is it real or am I dreaming?
Always is a red one never is the right one.
Corporation! Corporation! Corporation! Corporation! Corporation,
Take me home : not if we can help it.

I'm just a poor boy the corporation hates me.
He's just a poor boy waiting in a thunderstorm,
Bring him a bus to get him home alright.

Never come never go will it ever come.
Springburn Road no! We will not take you there. Take me home!
Springburn Road no! We will not take you there.
Springburn Road no! We will not take you home,will not take you home,
Never! Will not take you home.
Take me home Ah.
No! No! No! No! No! No!!!!

Oh Corporation corporation corporation take me home
The yellow bus has a devil put aside for me for me! For me!!!
                                     
So you think you can run past me throw mud in my eye?
So you think you can pass me and leave me to die?
Oh driver can't do this to me driver
Just got to get home just got to get right out of here

Nothing really matters waiting on the bus
Waiting in a thunderstorm nothing really matters at all

I Guess I'll have to walk now
