Lyrics
Cruisin' on down Main Street
You're relaxed and feelin' good
Next thing that you know you're seein'
Octopus in the neighborhood!
Surfin' on a sound wave
Swingin' through the stars
Take a left at your intestine
Take your second right past Mars.
On THE MAGIC SCHOOL BUS
Navigate a nostril
Climb on THE MAGIC SCHOOL BUS
Spank a plankton, too
On our Magic School Bus
Raft a river of lava
On THE MAGIC SCHOOL BUS
Such a fine thing to do!
So strap your bones right to the seat
Come on in and don't be shy
Just to make your day complete
You might get baked into a pie.
On THE MAGIC SCHOOL BUS. .
Step inside it's a wilder ride!
Come on ride on THE MAGIC SCHOOL BUS!
Information About Magic School Bus
The Magic School Bus is a song that was made for a television show that was originally made to make science fun. The man that made the show, Forte, made it because of the science education that females and minorities were learning. PBS aired it on PBS kids for all the kids to watch on Saturday mornings. Every little kid looked forward to Saturday morning cartoons, I know I did.
The series lasted from September 1994 to December 1997. Three years of a cartoon that was suppose to help raise science scores, excitement, and love. Canada adopted the Magic School bus show ad aired it from 1999 to 2004. The hit song for the Magic School Bus was sung by Little Richard.
After four seasons and 52 episodes, kids are still loving the show. As well as using it in other ways. The show was so popular as a cartoon for kids, that it then became a video game in October of 2011. The complete DVD series of the show was released July 31, 2012.
If you have hear the song, you know it is fun and cute to listen to. It was made to catch the attention of children so they would watch it. The Magic School Bus was a magic bus that was to take you on adventures, to learn, and to explore science, but having fun doing it. That was the point of the song and the show. To catch the attention and hold it. Children had fun watching it, and did not even know they were learning a little bit every episode. Forte found the perfect way to teach children, and knew they would not even know they were learning.
