The classic transit musical came from the City By The Bay and went like
this:

Verse one: (official MUNI)

Oh the N streetcar runs all day long
  Judah  Judah
The N streetcar line's nine miles long
All the Judah day

(brain fade-line missing)
New cars on the way
Paid my money-got my Fast Pass now
Guell I'll ride the K

Verse two (from smartass Herb Caen reader-not me)

Oh the N streetcar broke down again
Judah Judah
Deferred maintenance struck again
on Muni's right of way

Waiting here all morn-might be here all day
here's one now-it's packed to the roof
Guell I'll drive today
