Lyrics :-
Get your window open
Got a hellish long way to go
Temperature is rising and this bus is really travelling slow
I left around 8:30, don't expect to be home tonight
I'm trying to get some sleep but man the angle of this seat ain't right
Oh no
CHORUS:
Get your fettle on the green line bus
Get your fettle on the green line bus
Get your fettle on the green line bus
All the way
Should have spent some money
Maybe travelled on the train instead
Engine's getting louder, I can feel it kicking in my head
Some kid started crying, said he's dying and he wants to go, yeah
Mama's sitting, smiling, Johnnie Walker's on the radio, oh yeah
Pull into a café, have a coffee but be back by three, yeah
Standing in the queue, won't someone pass a cup along for me, oh yeah
