lyrics
Buses, taxis, scooters, bikes,
jostling for position, shifting,
moving left and veering right.
Pecking order understood and
wayward scattergoods discouraged.
Rules are followed, following and
leading, drifting toward the center.
Blinkers blinking, horns are honking.
Bigger ones are non-responding,
merging into spaces forming
by the smaller ones dispersing,
by the smaller ones dispersing.
Let's go...
Buildings here and
structures there and
destinations
everywhere and
get to where you’re
going quickly...
Know your place and trust the others.
Move along and just keep moving.
Move along and just keep moving...
That's right...
Metro-manic stimulus,
a bicycle behind a bus and
squeezing through a tiny crack,
maneuvering for traffic slack and
waiting for the light to change and,
when it does, we’re on our way.
Hustling, tussling, curving, swerving,
speeding, slowing, stopping, going.
So exciting and unnerving.
Blur of city lights like brushstrokes
on a canvas we’re all sharing.
Buses, taxis, scooters, bikes.
Buses, taxis, scooters, bikes,
and pedestrians…
Let's go...
Buildings here and
structures there and
destinations
everywhere and
get to where you’re
going quickly…
Know your place and trust the others.
Move along and just keep moving.
Move along and just keep moving…
That's right...
Buildings here and
structures there and
destinations
everywhere and
get to where you’re
going quickly…
Know your place and trust the others.
Move along and just keep moving.
Move along and just keep moving.
Move along and just keep moving…
