The Bus Song
All lyrics copyright 1998-2006, Trevor Thompson. All rights reserved.


I don't see how anyone could be bored on a bus ride
just look out the window, all those people and places going by
or if you get brave enough look around at the people on the bus
people are so fascinating
anyway on this particular day I was sitting on a sideways seat
when I noticed these two other guys sitting across from me
one of them was clinking something on the pole
this is what caught my attention

I can't be sure what they talked of, I'm not sure if I heard it right
I had a strange nightmare the night before so it was already on my mind
and I looked out the window and saw a street sign with two extra letters
to fit the situation

and if this was the case I'd have to do something fast or lose her
{how could you possibly lose something you've never had?}
but was this the case or was I just losing my mind
{how could you possibly lose something you've never had?}
(and I don't care what this means to you, this only means something to me)

I felt strangely uplifted walking later that lonely day
this was very strange, it was funny I'd be feeling that way
but then it could be I knew I was just being silly
it was all kind of paranoid anyway
I like to walk through the streets thinking of such things
I like to walk through the streets alone, by myself
passing houses and buildings, I know no one, no one knows me
I often walk through the streets {what are you hiding from?}

couldn't be sure what they talked of, I wasn't sure if I'd heard it right
had a strange nightmare the other night so it was already on my mind
and I looked up, but I'd passed the sign that with two extra letters
would've fit the situation

and if this was the case I'd have to do something fast or lose her
{how could you possibly lose something you've never had?}
but I knew I'd do nothing with all these nagging doubts in my mind
all these doubts in my mind, always doubts in my mind

I felt strangely uplifted as I walked about that day
but then everything seemed so strange
but one thing I couldn't get out of my mind,
oh, why did everything seem so staged?
why did everything seem so staged?
why did everything seem so staged?
why did everything
seem so staged?
