The song that I think you're quoting also has the line "Ten stops from
Golders Green, change at Camden Town" If I remember correctly. (That's
not a given.)

"Finchley Central
Ten long stations
From Golders Green, change at Camden Town."

Surely a bus would have been quicker?

Yes indeedy... well so sez journey planner at least (18 mins compared
to at least 29 mins via the tube). Perhaps the 82 bus wasn't quite as
good back then, and the 460 was just a figment of someone's
imagination.
