The Bus Song Lyrics by Anthony Ruptak

Between the Hangman and the Halo

2015

Jackrabbit running at the midnight moon
Bullfrog screaming from the cattail dew
Nothing in the world I would rather do
More than skipping flat rocks in this silver pool
I'm so happy when I'm with you
I think you're the gal that I always knew
Would come around and reel me up from the deep dark blue
Showed me love, showed me truth, showed me kindness, too
Glassy-eyed looking out a window pane
With a spider web fracture in the pouring rain
Inside a school bus with a chimney and a green tin frame
I think we moved into a painting with a cheesy name
And I've gotten lucky with some things before
Like the mouse who finds a bed beneath our canvas floor
Like the boy growing up who never sees the war
I am lucky as a devil, I don't know what for
There's a compass on the skin
On the top of your right foot
You get your equilibrium
From the song that your dad sung
I think the optimist within
Is alive and he's faithful
That when the thunderclouds roll in
There's a golden sun just waiting
To chime in
Credits
