Lady Cab Driver - Intellectual

[Intro]

Taxi, taxi!

[Verse 1]

Lady cab driver, can you take me for a ride?

Don't know where I'm going 'cause I don't know where I've been

Just put your foot on the gas, let's drive

Lady, don't ask questions, promise I'll tell you no lies

Trouble winds are blowing, I'm growing cold

Get me out of here, I feel I'm gonna die

[Chorus]

Lady cab driver, roll up your window fast

Lately, trouble winds are blowing hard

And I don't know if I can last

[Verse 2]

Lady, I'm so lonely, I know that's not the way to be

Don't want isolation, but, the air, it makes me cold

Drive it, baby, drive it, drive this demon out of me

Take me to your mansion, honey, let's go everywhere

Help me, girl, I'm drowning, mass confusion in my head

Will you accept my tears to pay the fare?

[Chorus]

Lady cab driver, roll up your window fast

Lately trouble winds are blowing hard

And I don't know if I can last, oh-oh

[Interlude]

Lady cab driver, can you take me for a ride?

[Chorus]

Lady cab driver, roll up your window fast

Lately, trouble winds are blowing hard

And I don't know if I can last

[Breakdown]

This is for the cab you have to drive for no money at all

This is for why I wasn't born like my brother – handsome and tall

This is for politicians who are bored and believe in war

And this, yeah, that's for me, that's who that one's for

This is for discrimination and egotists who think supreme

And this is for whoever taught you how to kiss in designer jeans

Uhh, that one's for–that one's for where you have to live

This one's for the rich, not all of 'em, just the greedy

The ones that don't know how to give

This one's for Yosemite Sam and the tourists at Disneyland

And this one, ooh, yeah, that's the one...

That's for, that's for the, the Creator of man

This is for the sun, the moon, the stars, the tourists at Disneyland

This is for the ocean, the sea, the shore

This is for, and that's for you, and that's who that one's for

This is for the women, so beautifully complex

This one's for love without sex

This is for the wind that blows no matter how fast or slow

Not knowing where I'm going

This galaxy's better not having a place to go

And now, I know (I know)
