His stop is always after yours
|
He never seems to leave
|
I heard him speak only once
|
You're standing on my foot (x2)
|
|
He never reads the paper
|
And state's lottery number is 5-8-3
|
I hope he doesn't look at you
|
Cause you'll have to pay the fare
|
If he looks at you
|
|
The man who rules the world
|
Rides the bus all day long
|
Staring out the window
|
Making things happen
|
|
All the lights turn green at once
|
And it begins to rain
|
Somewhere a TV changes channel
|
And angry words are spoken
|
|
The milk's gone bad
|
And the phone rings once and stops
|
A sign on the door says open
|
3000 miles
|
Time to change the oil (x2)
|
|
The man who rules the world
|
Rides the bus all day long
|
Staring out the window
|
Making things happen
|
|
The wind in the trees
|
Is the hardest part
|
And he loses sleep at night
|
He closes his eyes
|
And counts to ten
|
And hopes it turns out alright
|
Alright... (x7)
|
|
The man who rules the world
|
Rides the bus all day long
|
Staring out the window
|
Making things happen
|
|
Bullets hit their mark
|
And the screaming never stops
|
All systems go
|
Lights out
|
Everyone goes to sleep
|
|
The man who rules the world
|
Rides the bus all day long
|
Staring out the window
|
Making things happen
|
(x5)
