"Saint Joe on the School Bus" is the second single by rock band Marcy Playground. Although far from being as successful as the band's later smash hit "Sex and Candy," "Saint Joe on the School Bus" managed to hit number 8 on the US Modern Rock Charts and number 31 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks. In the album liner notes Wozniak, the band's front man states "this song is about being picked on". A video was made for the song in which a schoolyard bully "cries wolf" and is eventually devoured by one.
