Lyrics
Obstructing autos as the people board and flee
There ain't a story on a face that I ain't seen
Rotting in traffic well it ain't the life for me
Excuse me Mister will you pay a dollar please!
Drivers are cursing as thay swerve around me tight I try to flee but there's nowhere to in sight
We're stuck in places where I cannot read the signs
They seem like languages from some forgotten time
I'm breathing poison and I'm always on the clock
Taxiing vagarants and houdlums packing glocks
I've got two kids but just a stranger they call"Pop", When's all this madness ever going to stop
I'm ready for a little dinner and TV
Swing by the station for my clothes and other things
Then off to paradise where I'm the only king
Until tomorrow when I'm back here on these streets.....in my Bus
