The Divine Comedy - National Express lyrics

Take the National Express when your
Life's in a mess it'll make you smile
All human life is here
From the feeble old dear
To the screaming child
From the student who knows that
To have one of those would be suicide
To the family man
Manhandling the pram with paternal pride

And everybody sings "ba ba ba da"
We're going where the air is free

On the National Express
There's a jolly hostess
Selling crisps and tea
She'll provide you with drinks
And theatrical winks for a sky-high fee
Mini-Skirts were in style when she
Danced down the aisle
Back in '63 (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
But it's hard to get by when
Your arse is the size of a small country

And everybody sings "ba ba ba da"
We're going where the air is free

Tomorrow belongs to me
When you're sad and feeling blue
With nothing better to do
Don't just sit there feeling stressed
Take a trip on the National Express
On the National Express let's go

National Express, National Express
National Express, National Express
