In...an age...when peeeeeople say,...I...can't face...another day. A fourpenny bus ride can take one hour away out of his life 'Cause Johnny's a worker; he works from nine to five and home to the wife From his boring day he is far away... The same little bus ride provides him with a way to face his day From Tooting to Chiswick, his mind is free to roam far from his home In the land of smiles he rides for miles and miles... He looks out the window and dreams of days in the past he knew wouldn't last The standing conductor is there, asks him for his fare and gives him a stare Millions every day have to get away... So take a fourpenny bus ride to where people don't stare or get in your hair There' a million and one things to be when you learn how to be free Living day to day, each must find his way...
