XTC - Nonsuch

Omnibus - 2001 Remaster

Hey-yeah
Hey-yeah-yeah

Climb up here beside me, we can ride and find a friend unfound
Put your foot upon the laughing gas and drive your grin around

Omnibus, take all of us
All of us, take Omnibus
Ain't nothing in the world like a white-skinned girl
Make your Union Jack and make your flag unfurl

You can't say you've ridden 'til you've given up your heart and seat
Man, that lady clippie rip your ticket, make your trip complete

Omnibus, take all of us
All of us, take Omnibus
Ain't nothing in the world like a black-skinned girl
Make your Shakespeare hard and make your oyster pearl

Hey-yeah-yeah

Don't let horses pass you by
Take a run and leap on
Pull the blinkers from your eyes
Before big bus has gone

We'll be stopping off in every shop until you find that mate
Don't waste time, go on and taste them all, why don't you fill your plate?

Omnibus, take all of us
All of us, take Omnibus
There's nothing in the world like a gold-skinned girl
To make your bonsai weep and make your bamboo curl

Omnibus, take all of us (don't let horses pass you by)
All of us, take Omnibus (take a run and leap on)
Omnibus, take all of us (pull the blinkers from your eyes)
All of us, take Omnibus (before big bus has gone)
Ain't nothing in the world like a green-skinned girl
But that don't mean to say you can't look

(Omnibus)
(Omnibus)
(Omnibus)
(Omnibus)
(Omnibus)
(Omnibus)
