"Waiting For The Bus" lyrics - VIOLENT FEMMES

We got the mother and her kids
We got the guy and his date
We all get mad
We all get late
Looks like somebody forgot about us
Standing on the corner, waiting for the bus

Say hey Mr. driver man, don't be slow
'Cause I got somewhere I gotta go
Say hey Mr. driver man, drive that thing fast
My precious time keeps slipping past

Let's call the mayor, let's complain
Looks like the city's done it to us again
Tied up in traffic, what do you know
The damn city bus, it moves so slow

Say hey Mr. driver man, don't be slow
'Cause I got somewhere I gotta go
Say hey Mr. driver man, drive that thing fast
My precious time keeps slipping past

"Young man, your transfer's expired. Will you please pay full fare?"
"I just got this transfer!"
"Hey, can you open up the back door?"
"Either pay your 65 cents or you'll have to leave the bus!"
"You gotta be kidding me! I just got it!"
"Can you please open up the back door?!"

We got the mother and her kids
We got the guy and his date
We all get mad
We all get late
Looks like somebody forgot about us
Standing on the corner, waiting for the bus

Say hey Mr. driver man, don't be slow
'Cause I got somewhere I gotta go
Say hey Mr. driver man, drive that thing fast
My precious time keeps slipping past
