Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Welcome to the Knight Bus,

emergency transport for the

stranded witch or wizard.

My name is Stan Shunpike,

and I will be your

conductor for this evening.

What you doing down there?

I fell over.

What you fell over for?

I didn't do it on purpose.

Well, come on then,

let's not wait for the grass to grow.

What you looking at?

Nothing.

Well, come on then, in.

No, no, I'll get this, you get in.

Come on, move on, move on, move on.

Take her away, Ern!

Yeah, take it away, Ernie.

It's going to be a bumpy ride.

What did you say your name was, again?

I didn't.

Well, whereabouts are you headed?

The Leaky Cauldron.

That's in London.

D'you hear that, Ern?

"The Leaky Cauldron,

that's in London."

The Leaky Cauldron.

Eh, if you have the pea soup,

make sure you eat it before it eats you.

But the Muggles,

can't they see us?

Muggles?

They don't see nothing, do they?

No, but if you jab them with a fork,

they feel it.

Ernie! Little old lady at 12 o' clock!

Ten, nine, eight,

seven, six, five,

four, three, three and a half,

two, one and three quarters...

Yes!

Who is that?

That man?

"Who is that?"

"Who is —"

That is Sirius Black, that is.

Don't tell me you've never been hearing

of Sirius Black.

He's a murderer.

Got himself locked up in Azkaban for it.

How did he escape?

Well, that's the question, isn't it?

He's the first one that done it.

He was a big supporter of...

You Know Who.

Reckon you've heard of him.

Yeah.

Him I've heard of.

Ernie, two double-deckers at 12 o' clock.

They're getting closer, Ern.

Ernie, they're right on top of us!

Mind your head.

Hey, guys.

Guys, why the long faces?

Yeah, yeah.

Nearly there, nearly there.

The Leaky Cauldron.

Next stop, Knockturn Alley.

Ah, Mr Potter.

At last.

[Stanley Shunpike] Take her away, Ern.

[Dre Head] Yeah, take it away, Ern!
