I'm standing on the corner
So early it's still dark
I thought that it'd be here by now
There's no one but this dude
He's looking at the ground
He made a really weird guttural sound

Isn't the bus ever coming?
I think the bus driver oversleptIt's a darn old bus
Falling apart around us
Tell me, that was not the bus that just drove past us
Cuz if it was, darn I
Missed the bus
Missed the bus

Now it's after school again
I'm waiting with my friends
And looking at the green-brown grass
The next thing that I know
The bus is 'bout to go
And ev'ryone watches us haul ass

Isn't it so darn humiliating
Maybe I'll just trip now and fall

It's a darn old bus
Falling apart around us
Tell me, that was not the bus that just drove past us
Cuz if it was, darn I
Missed the bus
Missed the bus

Why does the bus never wait
Maybe it's cuz I'm dark
Yeah, yeah, yeah, (etc.) yeeeaaahh...

It's a darn old bus
Falling apart around us
Tell me, that was not the bus that just drove past us
Cuz if it was, darn I
Missed the bus
Missed the bus
