The Lyrics

Survivor:New York Taxi

I think he's driving me mad
This cabbie today, nah
The guy with the name of Achmad
Is driving away

I've got a taxi to ride
I've got a taxi to ride
I've got a taxi to ride
I don't know where

He said that driving for me
Is slowing him down, yeah
I wonder how fast he'd speed
If I weren't around

I've got a taxi to ride
I've got a taxi to ride
I've got a taxi to ride
I don't know where

I don't know whether this driver's high
Cops ought to stop twice
That would be alright with me
Before this dude makes us both die
Went through red lights
This oughta be a cheep fee

I think I'm going to be dead
In this taxi, yeah
The cabbie is driving like mad
And speeding away, yeah

I've got a taxi to ride
I've got a taxi to ride
I've got a taxi to ride
I don't know where

I don't know why it's the speed he denies
He ought to slow down
It be alright with me
Before the airbags are applied
He oughta cut price
For this cab fright with me

He said that driving with me
Makes him tightly wound, yeah
For he's not going the speed
Foot touched the ground

Ah, I've got a taxi to ride
I've got a taxi to ride
I've got a taxi to ride
So drivers beware

This cabbie don't care
Won't ride again on a dare
No license don't care
Yet a pretty cheep fare
This cabbie don't care

LOL. This would be a great location shoot but no one would win any money.

When I was 6, my mother took me to a doctor in New York. On the way back to Port Authority Bus Terminal, our cab had not one, not two, but three accidents. The last was in Times Square, and after it, all I could see was smoke, smoke, and more smoke. Turns out I was looking up at the Camel cigarettes billboard, with the guy blowing smoke rings. (It's long gone.) But I have hated taxis ever since. So much so that there are about 12 Harry Chapin songs I like better than "Taxi," and I wouldn't even watch the TV show "Taxi."
