There's a nanny and two strollers
A big suitcase, which bothers everyone
A kid munching on his lollipop
And the dimples of a pretty blonde
There's a guy who doesn't smell like roses
And a Bangladeshi selling them
There are two girls striking a pose
But the selfie is disappointing
There's even a Japanese student
Taking a little break
In the belly of bus 96
In the belly of bus 96

There's a not very friendly driver
One who honks at everything that moves
And finds it unbearable
Cyclists running red lights
There are strategies in people's heads
To grab the seats
There are looks of the morning after a party
And a few drops on the windshield
There's even a very comfortable retiree
Wearing slippers on his feet
In the belly of bus 96
In the belly of bus 96

There's a guy in a tie who's very late
Who would have been better off taking a taxi
A high school girl who's a night owl
Reviewing her geometry
One pulling out his last hairs
Over a level three crossword puzzle
With every nervous braking
It's four or five "excuse me's"
There's even a guy writing his thesis
Another eating a Piedmontese salad
In the belly of bus 96
In the belly of bus 96

There's an old couple arguing
And the nosy one eavesdropping
There's the chatterbox who thinks she's alone
And her neighbor waiting for her to leave
There's the lover thinking of him
While untangling her earphones
There's the little lady with the umbrella
Going to the market early
There's even a slightly obese young man
Listening to French songs
In the belly of bus 96
In the belly of bus 96

People tapping on their phones
Except for a resistor who's reading
There's the gray suit of the accountant
Counting the stops, I imagine
There's a guy from Creuse, brown cap
Pressing his cheek against the window
He's thinking about his next song
I think he even has the title already
In the belly of bus 96
As a title, I find it really impressive
In the belly of bus 96
In the belly of bus 96
