On your bus

We
want a wee
want a wee
want a wee

If you won't let us
we'll do it on your bus


Anon: Australian schoolchildren's chant to annoy the driver of the school bus. Told me by an Australian called Peter Johnston (?spelling) in about 1980.

I hadn't intended this to happen, but as a result of my posting this wee ditty here I have been sent a few more offerings, both from the back of buses in New Zealand:

The Boontown boys are on the piss again,
on the piss again
the Boontown boys are on the piss again,
we want a wee wee now!

we want a wee wee now!
we want a wee wee now!
the Boontown boys are on the piss again,
we want a wee wee now!

and (to the tune of ``we were only playing leapfrog''):

Stop the bus i want a wee wee
Stop the bus i want a wee wee
Stop the bus i want a wee wee
A wee wee packet of chips!
(NZ-ers often use to word `chips' to cover crisps as well as chips)


Thanks for those, but please don't send me any more!!
