Tell children you are going to sing a song with them. Explain that it is the same tune as "The Wheels on the Bus," only this time you will sing about a train instead of a bus. Ask children to tell you what they know about trains. Encourage children to share a time they took a train ride or read a story about a train.

You call us mallrats; the town is callous to the kids on the street. I know like an animal's knowledge, what you never acknowledge, and prefer to ignore. I go like a brick through a window, there may be no tomorrow, i don't care anymore. Here i am, i ruined your wall, talk responsibility, ugliness, mallrats. The town is callous to the kids on Ooh, ooh, ooh. Wheels on the bus. Now, I'ma light it up and pass it. Puff, puff and pass it. Don't be a dick and babysit, come on, just pass it over here. Counting cars as they pass me by. And I'm trying not to look a row behind me. 'Cause Jason's got his ass on the glass. And I hate him, driver hit a bump fast. The words of 'Wheels on the Bus' have also been adapted into new musical versions - including by Canadian children's entertainer Raffi, who set it to the tune of the traditional American song 'Buffalo Gals', and by Madonna impersonator Mad Donna, AKA Michelle Chappel, who sampled a Madonna song behind it to make a 2002 hit single. .
