The Trolley Song

(album: Glee: The Music, The Rise And Fall Of Sue Sylvester - 2015)

[Sue:]
With my high starched collar and my high topped shoes
And my hair piled high upon my head
I went to lose a jolly hour on the trolley
And lost my heart instead

[Doris:]
With his light brown derby and his bright green tie
He was quite the handsomest of men
I started to yen

[Sue:]
So I counted to ten

[Doris and Sue:]
Then I counted to ten again

[Doris:]
Clang, clang, clang went the trolley

[Sue:]
Ding, ding, ding went the bell

[Doris:]
Zing, zing, zing went my heart strings

[Doris and Sue:]
From the moment I saw him I fell

[Sue:]
Chug, chug, chug went the motor

[Doris:]
Bump, bump, bump went the brake

[Doris and Sue:]
Thump, thump, thump went my heart strings
When he smiled I could feel the car shake

[Doris:]
He tipped his hat and took a seat

[Doris and Sue:]
He said he hoped he hadn't stepped upon my feet

[Sue:]
He asked my name, I held my breath

[Doris and Sue:]
I couldn't speak because he scared me half to death

[Doris:]
Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Plop, plop, plop went the wheels

[Doris with Sue:]
Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings
As he started to go then I started to know how it feels
When the universe reels

[Band Members:]
The day was bright, the air was sweet
The smell of honeysuckle charmed you off your feet
You tried to sing but couldn't squeak
In fact, you loved him so you couldn't even speak

[Doris and Sue:]
Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Plop, plop, plop went the wheels
Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings
As he started to leave I took hold of his sleeve with my hand
And as if it were planned
He stayed on with me and it was grand just to stand
With his hand holding mine to the end of the line

[Band Members:]
Clang, clang, clang went the trolley

[Doris and Sue:]
Zing, zing, zing, zing went my heart!
