are you on the bus? - alan menken & glenn slater lyrics

[ornella]
are you on the bus, or off the bus?
baby, what’s it gonna be?

[sam] (spoken):
third night, jonas

[jonas] (spoken):
zach says everyone within fifty miles is comin’

[sam] (spoken):
so, we’re gonna pull out all the stops, that includes the boy, right?

[jonas] (spoken):
sam**

[sam] (spoken):
hey, whatever it takes

[ornella] (sung):
are you one of them
or one of us?
time to choose your destiny

[ida mae] (spoken):
i never thought i’d say this, but
why can’t you be more like your sister?
go out, have fun, drink a little

[isaiah] (spoken):
what you’re doin’ is wrong, mama

[ida mae] (spoken):
i’m just takin’ care of my family
both of my families

[ornella] (sung):
can’t ride ‘till you decide
no one climbs aboard for free
so if you’re on the bus
get on the bus
but if you ain’t comin’
baby, do it all for me
jonas (spoken):
we don’t need to use the kid
he’s just a roper. we’ll have a full house**

[sam] (spoken):
see, this* this right here is what happens
when you let little jonas
do the thinking for you

[jonas] (spoken):
it’s not about that
jake was 10 when his dad died

[sam] (spoken):
oh. i get it, i get it

[jonas] (spoken):
what?

[sam] (spoken):
how old were you when our d*mn father died?
they’re civilians, jonas, either rip ‘em off or
get a new career, you can’t have it both ways!

[sam] (sung):
life is a highway
traffic moves fast
some people ride it
some watch it go past
those on the roadsides
swiftly fade out of view
which i thought you knew
are you on the bus or off the bus
time to set the record straight
are you one of them or one of us
how you plan to meet your fate
you know there’s miles to go
and we’re already runnin’ late
so if you’re on the bus get on the bus
and if you ain’t comin’
brother i ain’t gonna wait

[isaiah] (spoken):
and i just thank god daddy isn’t here to see this*

[ida mae] (spoken):
oh, no no no!
you don’t talk to me
about your daddy
your daddy was a cold man
and he never touched a single soul
i had to clean houses for 20 years
to support his empty church!
is that the kind of man you wanna be?

[ida mae] (sung):
life is a freeway
to god’s own address
some take it local
and some go express
those in the slow lane just
watch the others pass through
baby, how about you?
are you on the bus or off the bus
tell me do you even know?
are you one of them or one of us?
time to let your colors show
this ride looks strange, no doubt
why don’t you hang your head and go
so if you’re on the bus, get on the bus
and if you ain’t comin’
baby, i’m still gonna go

[sam, ida mae, and ornella]:
now the engine is hummin’ and the motor is hot
this bus is rollin’, baby, with you or not
make up your mind, i’m pullin’ outta the lot
soon i’ll be gone, if you’re on, then get on

[ornella]: [sam, ida mae]:
on! are you on the bus or off the bus?
are you on the bus? baby, what’s it gonna be?
what’s it gonna be? are you one of them, or one of us?
one of us! gettin’ close to judgment day!
judgment day! road’s clear

[all]:
your seat’s right here
but there’s still a fee to pay
so if you’re on the bus get on the bus
and if you ain’t comin’
baby, i’ll be bummin’
and if you ain’t comin’
baby, baby, baby
don’t get in my way!

[jonas] (spoken):
i don’t want you talkin’ to my angels

[isaiah] (spoken):
why, ‘cause they been listenin’?

[jonas] (spoken):
it’s gotta stop, isaiah
this is my tent
so make up your mind

[jonas] (sung):
are you on the bus, or off the bus?

[isaiah] (sung):
i could ask the same of you

[jonas]:
are you one of them*

[isaiah]:
are you one of us?

[jonas]:
kid, you better think this through

[isaiah]:
my daddy
he strolled down heaven’s road
me, i plan on walkin’ too
so if you’re on the bus
get on your bus
oh, mister, we ain’t comin’
we’ve got better things
to do

[jonas] (spoken):
you think you’ve got what it takes
to shut me down?

[isaiah] (spoken):
souls are at stake, nightingale
i’m gonna do what i have to

[angels] (sung):
are you on or off the bus?

[jonas] (spoken):
then you better give it your best shot
‘cause if you fail
you’re on the street
with your sister and your mama with you

[angels] (sung):
are you on or off the bus?
