Taxi

I'm watching you
Jumping from the taxi in the rain
And everything we do, it's just the same you know
I'm not going home tonight
I'm downstairs
Smile at johnny astor in the hall
And he's surprised, he thinks we've got it all you know
I'm not going home tonight
Taxi take me home to the end
You don't even notice me and my friends
Monday morning people, they sleep
But we've just got tonight for all of these things
The car rides
New york city winter's has got it all
I'm falling from the ceiling to the floor you know
I'm not going home tonight
It's mad with you
I just got the take and we're shooting through
I never knew so many things to do yeah
Taxi take me home to the end
You don't even notice me and my friends
Monday morning people, they sleep
But we've just got tonight for all of these things
Taxi take me home to the end
You don't even notice me and my friends
(she said) she said (she said)
Think I've had enough of living on my own
And she said (she said)
And she said
Don't you look so disappointed
It's mad with you
I just got the take and we're shooting through
I never knew so many things to do oh yeah
I'm not going home
Taxi take me home to the end.....
