Herman's Hermits Lyrics
"Last Bus Home"

You've walked out on the in-crowd with a girl that you've just met
For a little late-night living on your own
And you want to dance till morning with this piece of fairer sex
And she says it's late and wants to head for home

And it's all part of the last bus home

In a gigantic greenhouse where the late-night buses stop
You'll be waiting for another half an hour
With a man dressed in a raincoat with a piece of string around
And a man who's dressed in mohair claims his car has broken down

And it's all part of the last bus home

For a moment, you must swallow your pride
Reach in your pocket for the money for your ride
Watched by a thousand eyes, this girl you've met tonight
Won't even steal a kiss

With a rocking, jogging motion, you're about to take a ride
On a public corporation's red domain
With the silver rails surrounding and the smoke that fills the air
And a weary bus conductor climbs the stairs

And it's all part of the last bus home
All part of the last bus home
