Sus on the Bus

Something's sus on this bus
And I don't want to fuss
But I'm not sure the driver
Is quite one of us

Something's sus on this bus
And I don't want to whinge
But that passenger has
Quite a purple-y tinge

Something's sus on this bus
And I don't want to cry
But the ticket inspector
Has one giant eye

Something's sus on this bus
And I don't want to grumble
But why are the engines
Beginning to rumble?

Something's sus on this bus
And I don't want to fight
But the doors are now wings
And we've just taken flight

Something's sus on this bus
And I don't want to frown
But we seem to be flying
Right over the town

Something's sus on this bus
And I'll try not to swoon
But we're really high up
And we just passed the moon

Something's sus on this bus
And I hate to complain
But now we have landed
On Martian terrain

Something's sus on this bus
Or maybe it’s cool...
'Cos now I am going
To Alien School!
