        Artist：Villagers
        Song：27 Strangers
        The bus was late
        And forced us all to congregate
        Twenty-seven strangers
        Made to stand and wait
        The time went by
        The sun went down
        A baby cried
        I just stood in line
        But there is no cue
        No stage hand saying what to do
        And you are me
        And I am you
        The bus it came
        And everybody loaded in
        Twenty-seven strangers
        In a moving can
        The fluorescent light
        Doubled everyone inside
        The baby's face reflected
        In the shopfronts in the sky
        But faces change
        And rules they all get rearranged
        And photographs
        All fade away
        The bus broke down
        At the graveyard on the edge of town
        Twenty-seven strangers
        Separate without a sound
        So I walked home
        Just feeling nothing on my own
        Noticing that tree of yours
        I've been watching it grow
        So that's why I'm late
        My dearest one what can I say
        And tomorrow it could be the same
        When I do it all again
