lyrics

Hello taxi driver I drank a little too much
I don’t know where I live and I’ve forgotten how to love
My heart's fallen apart and I don’t care to pick it up
So won't you drive me around this town and I’ll tell you where to stop

You see my friend just got laid off
And she don’t know what to do
She may travel for a while and sip a little booze

These hard tough times have got me down
We were promised so damn much
And now we're getting kicked around all to fulfill
The fatman's broken dream
To sell synthetic happiness in exchange for our self esteem

Well hello taxi driver would it kill you to speed up
I’m not made out of money and I don’t think I have enough
You see my bank's fallen apart and when I call they don’t pick up
They sent me to collections for the interest that won't stop

My friend just moved out west cause there’s no work over here
Now he’s working in the rigs with his sweat, blood and tears

These hard tough times have got me down
We were promised so damn much
And now we're getting kicked around all to fulfill
The fatman's broken dream
To sell synthetic happiness in exchange for our self esteem

Sorry taxi driver I’ve been talking your ear off
Just drop me at this corner it won't be a long walk
I’m always on my feet
Oh my fare is 20 bucks
Here’s a 10 dollar bill

It’s all I got

Comme d'habitude, j'ai bien du mal à choisir une "favorite track" avec ce groupe de Trashgrass qui excelle dans son domaine. Mais là, j'ai réussi à me décider finalement. XD EklektikTrip
