[Verse 1]
Every day, I get in the queue
(Too much, Magic Bus)
To get on the bus that takes me to you
(Too much, Magic Bus)
I'm so nervous, I just sit and smile
(Too much, Magic Bus)
Your house is only another mile
(Too much, Magic Bus)
[Verse 2]
Thank you, driver, for getting me here
(Too much, Magic Bus)
You'll be an inspector, have no fear
(Too much, Magic Bus)
I don't wanna cause no fuss
(Too much, Magic Bus)
But can I buy your Magic Bus?
(Too much, Magic Bus)
[Interlude 1]
(No!)
[Verse 3]
I don't care how much I'll pay
(Too much, Magic Bus)
I wanna drive my bus to my baby each day
(Too much, Magic Bus)
[Interlude 2]
I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it
I want it, I want it, I want it (You can't have it!)
I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it
[Bridge]
Thruppence and sixpence every day
Just to drive to my baby
Thruppence and sixpence each day
'Cause I drive my baby every way
[Chorus]
Magic Bus, Magic Bus (Magic Bus)
Magic Bus, Magic Bus (All aboard! All aboard!)
Magic Bus, Magic Bus (I want the Magic Bus)
Magic Bus (I want the Magic Bus)
Magic Bus (I want the Magic Bus)
Magic Bus (I want the Magic Bus)
Magic Bus, Magic Bus (I want the Magic Bus)
[Verse 4]
I said, now I've got my Magic Bus
(Too much, Magic Bus)
I said, now I've got my Magic Bus
(Too much, Magic Bus)
I drive my baby every way
(Too much, Magic Bus)
Each time, I go a different way
(Too much, Magic Bus)
[Chorus]
I want it, I want it (Magic Bus)
I want it, I want it (Magic Bus)
I want it, I want it (Magic Bus)
I want it, yeah, I want it (Magic Bus)
[Outro]
Every day, you'll see the dust
(Too much, Magic Bus)
As I drive my baby in my Magic Bus
(Too much, Magic Bus)
(Magic Bus, Magic Bus)
