The melody of that shtick; which is a take-off from the old "What do you do with a drunken sailor" tune...I presume...is in 2/4 time. Thus, my count off, should have been more like: "1, 2, 1, 2"... Your lyric notation scheme is really more correct. [Ed McMahon's old Carson Show: "You are correct, Sir!"] I'm showing two things about myself in this lame comment...How out of touch I am, these day, with 'corny-ass' gigging tunes; and my old private music teacher tendency to over-analyze. "Mea culpa, mea culpa...mea maxima culpa!"? Oh wait!...That's three...the third being my Catlick altar boy, Latin Mass, upbringing.

[what are these, by the way?...neuveau Pirate tunes?...and so early in the morning? WTF?]... This set of lyrics would be for one of those buses taken over completely by atheists, no doubt.: [Note: alternate Xtians with: Fundies, Muslims, assholes, fuckheads...you get the idea.] 2, 3, 4...

"Throw them out the emergency door...NO!...Wait!...make that...[fire (as in hell-fire?)] "Throw them out the fire door fire door fire door Throw them out the fire door Morning, noon, and night!" [Surprise!] Of course, the following alternate lyric (a shade more violent...perhaps, aimed at terrorist Muslims?) would only be used by atheists on a private (Chartered?) bus: [Again...alternate Xtians with: Fundies, Muslims, assholes, fuckheads, delusionals, numb-nuts...dip-shits, etc.] 2, 3, 4... Kick the assholes in the ass in the ass in the ass Kick the assholes in the ass, then... Kick them in the balls! See what you started, Jimmer? What's that?...A little something to start off another wacky week on a more positive note... with a song? HARR!!! :shock: OK...Who's next?... Stardust? (And, by the way...where's RDZ, and Naomi, these days?) Jimmer…If I might contribute?…

2, 3, 4…
“Keep those Xtians off our bus
off our bus
off our bus
Keep those Xtians off our bus
early in the morning.”

2nd verse? (rhythmically, a little trickier)…
“Throw them out the emergency door…NO!…Wait!…make that…[fire (as in hell-fire?)]
“Throw them out the fire door
fire door
fire door
Throw them out the fire door
Morning, noon, and night!” [Surprise!]

Kick the assholes in the ass
in the ass
in the ass
Kick the assholes in the ass, then…
Kick them in the balls!

See what you started, Jimmer?
What’s that?…A little something to start off another wacky week on a more positive note…
with a song?
HARR!!! :shock:

OK…Who’s next?…
Stardust?
(And, by the way…where’s RDZ, and Naomi, these days?)

There is no reason for Christians to feel offended by a sign wishing people to be happy. The Christians say they are offended, but actually they feel threatened because their faith is gossamer and their fantasy is interrupted. They don't like seeing their inner, private thoughts plastered on a sign right in front of their faces. Their faith can be blown away with a few words on a bus. I'm going to buy the t-shirts for my husband and I. Just don't know if we should wear them south of the Mason-Dixon line! k9, you make a very good point.

It basically says "<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91rcbRgMgGE" rel="nofollow">Don't Worry, Be Happy!</a>" Offensive? The Christians are reacting to it as if it says "Yes, there is a God, and he's a sadistic bastard. Start worrying, because he's sending your arse to Hell!" I like the British atheist bus message.
