I remember when, when he ran He fled the grasslands and then became king He now rests on a throne of clouds In an empire that spends its time sleeping He stole some lingonberry jam and a bread knife Now that he was making his own way, he had to fight The fire helped him ward off fiends so He could bid his weary mind good night While on his way, he met a maid Her name was signed in honey by the moon She housed her bees in pine and spruce That’s why she could sing her dulcet tunes Her anklets left a trail of sound he still remembers Every night the sky bows and he hears them tinkle He bade her goodbye and he left right that noon He lights candles craving for her warmth Time to go Reap and sow Claim the throne Of bluestone He sped right past the morning dew To find heaven’s breeze far north east And when the wind blew, the thistledown Swirled around him and swept him off his feet That’s when he found what he had long been seeking Silken gates and crystal straits and northern blazing stars They lined the streets with cotton and goose feathers That’s how this young boy was crowned the king

Well I don't know about buses And buses don't know about me They seem pretty pretty and they're all around the city As far as the eye can see Well I don't know about buses On the long road home The roads are long but the buses are strong Like oxes how they roam When I see a bus passing me I'm always there Too slow to make it and too lost to care I pray one day I'll find the right bus for me That'll take me away as far as the eye can see Well I don't know about buses And buses don't know about me They seem pretty pretty and they're all around the city As far as the eye can see [Arguing with rude bus driver] As far as the eye can see
