The Polar Express

[Intro: Conductor]
All aboard, all aboard
Tickets please, tickets
Well, you coming?

[Verse 1: Children, Both, Conductor]
It's a magic carpet on a rail, never takes a rest
Flying through the mountains and the snow
You can ride for free and join the fun if you just say "Yes"
'Cause that's the way things happen on the Polar Express
You bet

[Chorus: Children, Children & Conductor]
Woo, woo, the whistle blows
That's the sound of her singing
Ding, ding, the bell will ring
Golly, look at her go
You wonder if you'll get there soon, anybody's guess
'Cause that's the way things happen on the Polar Express

[Refrain: Children, Conductor & Both]
When we get there, we'll scream "Yes" (Yeah)
We'll arrive with a
Bang, bang, bang
Boom, boom, boom
Laughing all the way

[Verse 2: Conductor]
It's a choo-choo with a stunning view
That rivals all the best
But you won't see it advertised
It's a simple fact we stay on track
Though sometimes we digress
But that can only happen on the Polar Express

[Chorus: Children, Conductor & Children]
Hiss, hiss the steaming mist
That's the sound of her breathing
Clang, clang the boiler bangs
What a wonderful show
With a comfy seat and lots to eat
Boy, it's just the best
Wish it wouldn't ever have to end
With a little luck, we'll be on time
There's no need to stress
'Cause that's the way things happen on the Polar Express

[Bridge: Conductor]
Lights are gleaming far across the snow
You're not dreaming
May I present the North Pole

[Verse 3: Conductor, Conductor & Children]
If it's penguins you expect to view
You surely haven't guessed
They all live down at the other end
With a little luck, we'll be on time
There's no need to stress
'Cause that's the way things happen on the Polar Express

[Chorus: Children, Both, Conductor]
Woo, woo, the whistle blows
That's the sound of her singing
Ding, ding, the bell will ring
Golly, look at her go
If you want to join us, come along
I'll check my manifest
'Cause that's the way things happen on the Polar Express

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain: Children, Conductor & Both]
When we get there, we'll scream "Yes" (Yeah)
We'll arrive with a
Bang, bang, bang
Boom, boom, boom
Laughing all the way
If you want to join us, come along
You can be our guest
'Cause that's the way things happen on the
Roller coaster, the Polar Express

[Outro: Conductor]
Next stop one hundred and thirteen forty-four
Edbrooke Avenue
Next stop one hundred and thirteen forty-four
Edbrooke Avenue
Ah, ah, ah, that is not a toy, young man
Young man, that is not a toy
Take your seats, please
Take your seats
