Taxi cab, oh taxi cab
Where art thou?
Come hither unto me
And take me somewhere right now

I need a change of scenery,
snap snap, take me there
I need a different memory,
Who, what, where?

Taxi cab, oh taxi cab
Thou hast my heart
Approach upon me carrying
My new start

I require your assistance,
My demons are close behind
They follow with persistence,
How I wish they were blind

Taxi cab, oh taxi cab
Taketh mine own heart
If thou cannot save me
At least let me restart

Rubber onto road,
quick before they see
For my demons, they have growed,
and are still chasing me

Taxi cab, oh taxi cab
Thou hast the only escape
To be or not to be,
Breaks the image agape

Barreling down the alley,
faster please, oh dear
this may be my death valley,
the reaper, he is near

Taxi cab, oh taxi cab
Thine hast tried so hard
"Here, buy yourself some new wheels"
I say and give my card

I'm cowering upon the horde,
they're towering up above
Oh my, what I would reward,
to my peace dove

Taxi cab, oh taxi cab
Run while thy has the chance
Pitter patter down the road
Don't give me another glance

They dive unto me,
I wretch and scream
The scene plays out violently,
Sadly, not a dream
One of my favorites
