So here you are leaving again
When things start to get real
I'm done with doing your ***** work
And showing you how I feel

You know I can do much better
I won't take this anymore
Ill take  my chances
There's plenty of opened doors

So heres to the yellow taxi cab
I bet he makes his living from you
It'd save you some money
If you bought the line
And took time to think it through
Theres more to life than the backseat
You know those needles won't do
So heres to the yellow taxi cab
And the road that ends with you

You know you can't hold
A chain on me
I won't let you drag me down
I'm through with taking
The fall for you
I'm tired of being your clown

You know I can do much better
I won't take this anymore
Ill take  my chances
There's plenty of opened doors

So heres to the yellow taxi cab
I bet he makes his living from you
It'd save you some money
If you bought the line
And took time to think it through
Theres more to life than the backseat
You know those needles won't do
So heres to the yellow taxi cab
And the road that ends with you
