Twenty Seven Strangers
The bus was lateAnd forced us all to congregateTwenty-seven strangersMade to stand and waitThe time went byThe sun went downA baby criedI just stood in lineBut there is no cueNo stage hand saying what to doAnd you are meAnd I am youThe bus it cameAnd everybody loaded inTwenty-seven strangersIn a moving canThe fluorescent lightDoubled everyone insideThe baby's face reflectedIn the shopfronts in the skyBut faces changeSongtexteAnd rules they all get rearrangedAnd photographsAll fade awayThe bus broke downAt the graveyard on the edge of townTwenty-seven strangersSeparate without a soundSo I walked homeJust feeling nothing on my ownNoticing that tree of yoursI've been watching it growSo that's why I'm lateMy dearest one what can I sayAnd tomorrow it could be the sameWhen I do it all again
