The Trolley Song (Glee Cast Version)

With my high-starched collar and my high-topped shoes And my hair piled high upon my head I went to lose a jolly hour on the trolley And lost my heart instead With his light brown derby and his bright green tie He was quite the handsomest of men I started to yen So I counted to ten Then I counted to ten again "Clang, clang, clang" went the trolley "Ding, ding, ding" went the bell "Zing, zing, zing" went my heart strings From the moment I saw him, I fell "Chug, chug, chug" went the motor "Bump, bump, bump" went the brake "Thump, thump, thump" went my heart strings When he smiled I could feel the car shake He tipped his hat and took a seat He said he hoped he hadn't stepped upon my feet He asked my name, I held my breath I couldn't speak because he scared me half to death "Buzz, buzz, buzz" went the buzzer "Plop, plop, plop" went the wheels "Stop, stop, stop" went my heart strings As he started to go, then I started to know how it feels When the universe reels The day was bright, the air was sweet The smell of honeysuckle charmed you off your feet You tried to sing, but couldn't squeak In fact, you loved him, so you couldn't even speak "Buzz, buzz, buzz" went the buzzer "Plop, plop, plop" went the wheels "Stop, stop, stop" went my heart strings As he started to leave, I took hold of his sleeve with my hand And as if it were planned He stayed on with me and it was grand just to stand With his hand holding mine to the end of the line ("Clang, clang, clang" went the trolley "Zing, zing, zing" went my heart)
