Is this the real life, or just a bus fantasy?
Caught in a traffic jam, no escape from the city,
Open my eyes, look at the crowded streets,
I'm just a bus driver, trying to keep my seat,
Because I'm steering slowly, shifting gears too low,
Stuck in this gridlock, nowhere else to go.

Mama, just left the station,
Put my foot on the gas, missed my destination,
Mama, the schedule's a wreck,
But now I've gone and hit a double-decker wreck.

Mama, ooh, I don't wanna drive,
I sometimes wish I'd never taken this route at all.
This time tomorrow, carry on carry on, carry on,
The timetable really matters

I see a little silhouette of a fare,
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, can you pay your bus fare?
Traffic lights and roadworks, very, very delaying me.
Stuck in traffic, Stuck in traffic,
Stuck in traffic, stuck in traffic,
Stuck in traffic, stuck in traffic
Stuck in traffic, stuck in traffic
I'm just a driver, nobody cares for me.
He's just a driver from a bus company,
Spare him his traffic from this bus atrocity.

Traffic lights, traffic slow, will you let me go?
TFL! No, we will not let you go.
(Let him go!) TFL! We will not let you go.
(Let him go!) TFL! We will not let you go.
(Let me go) Will not let you go.
(Let me go)(Never) Never let you go
(Let me go) (Never) let you go (Let me go) Ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
(Oh mamma mia, mamma mia) Mamma mia, let me go.
TFL has a stop sign put aside for me, for me, for me.

So you think you can honk at me and cut me off?
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,
Just gotta keep driving, just gotta keep driving like a boss.

Journey really matters,
Passengers can see,
Journey really matters,
To me.

Any way the route goes...
