A7 Em Em7 A7 Em Em7
Oh!
A7 Em Em7 Em
Ooh!
[Verse 1]
A Em Em7 A Em Em7 A
Susan catches the bus into town at 10:30 am and sits on the back seat. She looks at the man in front's
Em Em7 A Em Em7
head and thinks how his fat, wrinkled neck looks like a large carrot sticking out from the collar of his shirt
[Chorus]
A7 Em Em7
A-ah-
A7 Em Em7
Oh! a-ah
A7 Em Em7
Oh! a-ah
Em
Ooo-ooo-oooh!
[Verse 2]
A Em Em7 A Em Em7 A
She adds up the numbers on her bus ticket to see if they make 21 - but they don't. Maybe she shouldn't
Em Em7 A Em Em7
bother going to school at all then. Her friends will be in the yard with their arms folded on the chests,
Bm E Bm
pushing up their breasts to try and make them look bigger, while the boys will be too busy playing
E
football to notice - aw!
[Verse 3]
A Em Em7 A Em Em7
The bus is waiting on the High Street when it suddenly begins to rain torrentially and it sounds like
A Em Em7 A Em Em7
someone has emptied about a million packets of dried peas onto the roof of the bus
[Chorus]
A7 Em Em7
A-ah-
A7 Em Em7
Oh! a-ah
A7 Em Em7
Oh! a-ah
Em
Ooo-ooo-oooh!
[Verse 4]
A Em Em7 A Em
"What if it just keeps raining?", she thinks to herself. "And it was just like being in an aquarium except
Em7 A Em Em7 A Em Em7
it was all shoppers and office workers that were floating past the windows instead of fish."
Bm E
She's still thinking about this as the bus goes past Caroline Lee's house, where there was a party last
Bm E
week. There were some German exchange students over who were very immature. They ended up jumping out of the
A5
bedroom window.
[Verse 5]
A5 A Em Em7
One of them tried to get her to kiss him on the stairs - so she kicked him.
A Em Em7 A Em Em7
Later she was sick because she'd drunk too much cider.
A Em Em7
Caroline was drunk as well,
A Em Em7 A Em Em7
she was pretending that she was married to a tall boy in glasses,
A Em Em7 A Em Em7
And she had to wear a polo neck for three days afterwards to cover up the lovebite on her neck
[Instrumental]
A Em Em7 A Em Em7
A Em Em7 A Em Em7
[Chorus]
A7 Em Em7
Oh! a-ah-
A7 Em Em7
Oh! a-ah
A7 Em Em7
Oh! a-ah
A7 Em Em7
Oh! a-ah-oh!
[Instrumental]
Bm E Bm E
Oho!
[Verse 6]
A Em Em7 A Em Em7 A
By now the bus is going past the markets. Outside is a man who spends all day forcing felt-tip pens into
Em Em7 A Em Em7 A
people's hands and then trying to make them pay for them. She used to work in a pet shop there, but she got
Em Em7 A Em Em7 A
sacked for talking to boys when she was supposed to be working. She wasn't too bothered though: she hated the
Em Em7 A Em Em7
smell of the rabbits anyway
[Verse 7]
A7 Em Em7 A7 Em Em7 A7
"Maybe this bus won't stop", she thinks, "and I'll stay on it until I'm old enough to go into pubs on
Em Em7 A Em Em7 A
my own, and it'll drive me to a town where people with black hair are treated specially,
Em Em7 A Em Em7 A Em
and I can make lots of money from charging fat old men five pounds a time to look up my skirt, and they'll
Em7 A Em Em7
be queuing up to take me out to dinner." oh!
[Verse 8]
A Em Em7 A Em Em7 A Em
I suppose you think she's just a silly girl with stupid ideas, but remember her in those
Em7 A Em Em7
days.
A Em Em7 A Em Em7 A
They talk about people with a fire within and all that stuff. Well, she had that alright - it's just that
Em Em7
nobody dared to jump into her fire
A Em Em7 A7 Em Em7
and risk being consumed. A-ah-oh!
A7 Em Em7
Instead they put her in a corner
A7
And let her heat up the room
Em Em7 A7 Em
warming their hands and backsides in front of her
Em7 A7
And then slagging her off around town
A7
No-one ever really got inside Susan
A7
And,
A7
And,
A Em Em7
She always ended up getting off the bus,
A Em Em7
At the terminus,
A7 Em Em7
And then walking home
[Outro]
A7 Em Em7
Oh!
A7 Em Em7 A7 Em Em7
A7 Em Em7 A7 Em Em7
