The Who - Magic Bus

Magic Bus Lyric

Every day I get in the queue
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
To get on the bus that takes me to you
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
I'm so nervous, I just sit and smile
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
Your house is only another mile
(Too much, the Magic Bus)

Thank you, driver, for getting me here
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
You'll be an inspector, have no fear
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
I don't want to cause no fuss
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
But can I buy your magic bus?
(Too much, the Magic Bus)

(Driver): Noooooo!

I don't care how much I pay
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
I want to drive my bus to my baby each day
(Too much, the Magic Bus)

I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it....
(Driver): You can't have it

Thruppence, sixpence every day
Just to drive to my baby
Thruppence, sixpence each day
'Cause I drive my baby every way

Magic Bus
Magic Bus
Magic Bus
(All board)
Magic Bus
Magic Bus
Magic Bus
(I want the) Magic Bus
(I want the) Magic Bus
I want the Magic Bus
I want the Magic Bus
I want the Magic Bus

Said now I got my Magic Bus
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
Said now I got my Magic Bus
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
I drive my baby every way
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
Each time I go a different way
(Too much, the Magic Bus)

I want it, I want it, I want it...
(Magic Bus)

Every day you'll see the dust
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
As I drive my baby in my Magic Bus
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
