Various Artists - Taxi Cab lyrics

[Verse 1] Unsentimental Traveling around Sure of myself Sure of it now But you were standing there so close to me Like the future was supposed to be In the aisles of the grocery And the blocks uptown [Verse 2] I remember Remember it well But if I'd forgotten Could you tell? In the shadow of your first attack I was questioning and looking back You said, "Baby, we don't speak of that" Like a real aristocrat [Verse 3] Compound to compound Lazy and safe Wanted to leave it Wanted to wait When the taxi door was open wide I pretended I was horrified By the uniform and gloves outside Of the courtyard gate [Verse 4] You're not a victim But neither am I Nostalgic for garbage; Desperate for time I could blame it on your mother's hair Or the colors that your father wears But I know that I was never fair You were always fine
