By Accident On the Bus

I forgot it on the bus
I didn't mean to
I forgot it on the bus
Oh! What a shame, such a shame
I forgot it on the bus
It was an accident
I forgot it on the bus
I'm going to miss it just the same

"People always forget things on buses"
"Really?"
"Yeah, it happens all the time"

My friend Jimmy left his homework
Uncle Tom left his umbrella
Dad forgot his purple mittens
That he got from Aunty Stella
Everyone's forgotten something
Sometime in their lives, I'll bet
So who could really blame me
If I left my clarinet?

"Oh man, your clarinet? The black one with the...
The shiny... things on it?"
"Yeah, that one. I was really broken up about it"

But there's a warehouse full of items
Other people leave behind
There are saxophones, recorders
Instruments of every kind
There are tubas, drums and trumpets
See, I'm not the only one
There are a hundred violins!
Oh yeah, and one accordion

"Just one?"
"Yeah, oddly enough, just one"
"Hmm"

I forgot it on the bus
I didn't mean to
I forgot it on the bus
Oh! What a shame, such a shame
I forgot it on the bus
It was an accident
I forgot it on the bus
But mother found it just the same
