The New Fares

There will be springtime, things will look up for us
Birds from last year will be back from the Bosporus
But all the things that the new year will bring
Are eclipsed by the news of which everyone sings
Here come the new fares
Welcome to new fares
Everyone from the front to the back of the queue shares
The anticipation that is flooding the station
Here come the new fares
Welcome to the new fares
Where there be hardship we'll show togetherness
Those in the doldrums and those in well-feathered nests
We'll pay what you say if you take us to work
And those out of work the'll just go round in circles
Cause they all love the new fares
All hail the new fares
I'll buy my return to pay for yours on your shares
With our hearts in our mouths from the North to the South
We welcome the new fares
Here come the new fares
We'll pay what you say if you take us to work
We're all scrambling for tickets we're going berserk
For those sensational new fares
All hail the new fares
We don't care who knows it but we do know who cares
With our hearts in our mouths from the North to the South
We welcome the new fares
Here come the new fares
