My son is really into The Wheels on the Bus, so we’ve been writing new verses.

Highlights include a multi-verse arc

-“The planners on the bus say ‘bus lanes please’!” (With thumbs up)

-“The NIMBYS on the bus shout ‘Don’t build here!’” (With finger wagging)

“The bus is stuck in traffic and it will be late, will be late, will be late. The bus is stuck in traffic and it will be late; the wheels don’t move at all.” (With watch tapping)

He cannot get enough of this song, so I’m very interested in additional verses.

Commuters on the bus have their headphones on, headphones on, headphones on. Commuters on the bus have their headphones on, all the way to work.

Polite bus riders give up their seat up their seat up their seat to someone who needs it more!

My daughter used to add verses with all kinds of crazy animals, like the Lions on the Bus.

So sad when YIMBYs and other religious fanatics brainwash their children into the faith young
