E-3. Achoo!
PROMPT

The wheels on the bus go round and round
Round and round, round and round
The wheels on the bus go round and round
Unless they run over a spike strip thrown out by the highway patrol during a high speed chase.

The wipers on the bus go Swish, swish, swish;
Swish, swish, swish;
Swish, swish, swish.
The wipers on the bus go Swish, swish, swish,
As they try to clear the acid rain being created by the devastation of our planet's rainforests.

The horn on the bus goes Beep, beep, beep;
Beep, beep, beep;
Beep, beep, beep.
The horn on the bus goes Beep, beep, beep,
Which the driver uses way too aggressively as he cuts off other motorists and runs stop signs.

The doors on the bus go open and shut;
Open and shut;
Open and shut.
The doors on the bus go open and shut;
Except when you're in a hurry and then they usually get stuck shut.

The driver on the bus says "Move on back,
move on back, move on back;"
The driver on the bus says "Move on back",
Especially if the bus is traveling through Montgomery, Alabama circa 1956.

The babies on the bus say "Wah, wah, wah;
Wah, wah, wah;
Wah, wah, wah".
The babies on the bus say "Wah, wah, wah",
Because Mommy left the iPad at home.

The mommies on the bus say "Shush, shush, shush;
Shush, shush, shush;
Shush, shush, shush."
The mommies on the bus say "Shush, shush, shush"
Because they just can't even anymore.
