Bus Stop
Simon Panrucker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm just standing here waiting at the bus stop
But the bus hasn't come yet, I wonder what's up
I don't wanna wait here all day
I want the bus to come and take me away

I've been here for fifteen minutes
I just wanna get my one way ticket
Where am I going? You know I don't know
I guess I'll go where the bus driver goes
YEAH

Where am I going? You know I don't know
I guess I'll go where the bus driver goes
Where am I going? You know I don't know
I guess I'll go where the bus driver goes
Where am I going? You know I don't know
I guess I'll go where the bus driver goes
Where am I going? You know I don't know
I guess I'll go where the bus driver goes
Yeah!
I'm at the bus stop





OH YEAH OH YEAH
I'm waiting at the bus stop!
