Oh, oh
I missed the bus, oh
I missed the bus
I missed the bus, oh
I missed the bus
I went to bed late but I didn't think late would effect me
Early came around then late wouldn't let me
Wake up, wake up, so I can get dressed
I guess my body was mad 'cause I gave it no rest
And when I finally did awake it was a quarter to eight
Jumped in the shower and I know I was late
Stepped out put on my jeans and my uni'
And said to myself if I miss school I'm ruined
But I ran down hill and I rushed, rushed
I ran down the hill trying to catch the bus
Now I'm hoping to myself everything is cool
Standing on my block like a fool
But one, I'm all alone and two, the bus is gone
Three, if I miss school this weekend I'll be at home
Can somebody come real fast to my rescue
I'm stuck at the crib and I don't know what to do
I missed the bus, oh
I missed the bus
I missed the bus, oh
And that is something I will never ever, ever do again
I missed the bus, oh
I missed the bus
I missed the bus, oh
And that is something I will never ever, ever do again
I was up, he was up but I laid back down
Thinking I could chill 'til the time came around
And I did, he did but a little too long
'Cause when I woke up, yo, the bus was gone
I almost broke my neck trying to get out the door
And I chased the bus 'til my feet was sore
On the trail, the tail but I couldn't catch up
I guess it must have been my day for me to have bad luck
'Cause I lost my lunch, money, book, bag busted
Scuffed up my sneakers and I'm really disgusted
And when I got to school it was the same old thing
Stepped in the class and the school bell rang
It was nothing I could do I tried to explain
But the teacher treated me like I was playing a game
You lose, you lose, the day was a no win
I learned to never miss my bus again
I missed the bus, oh
I missed the bus
I missed the bus
And that is something I will never ever, ever do again
I missed the bus, oh
I missed the bus
I missed the bus, oh
And that is something I will never ever, ever do again
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I missed the bus, oh
I missed the bus
I missed the bus, oh
And that is something I will never ever, ever do again
I missed the bus, oh
I missed the bus
I missed the bus, oh
And that is something I will never ever, ever do again
I missed the bus, oh
I missed the bus
I missed the bus, oh
And that is something I will never ever, ever do again
I missed the bus, oh
I missed the bus, oh
