OK... |
| [00:08.03] |
Taxi! |
| [00:12.75] |
I met this girl in a Birmingham taxi |
| [00:15.53] |
I got it first, but she slipped in before me |
| [00:17.78] |
Just as I was telling her, hey this is mine |
| [00:20.36] |
She already told the cab driver where to go |
| [00:22.97] |
Me I always show respect for the ladies |
| [00:25.32] |
I sat back and let her have it her way |
| [00:27.57] |
So good lord sees me through darkness and light |
| [00:30.00] |
I tell you what I remembered from that night |
| [00:32.99] |
I'm hungry, do you fancy a little something to eat? |
| [00:35.05] |
I can't go on forever on Cognac and weed |
| [00:37.67] |
But she was already on the way down in the seat |
| [00:40.49] |
I tried to stop her, or maybe I didn't |
| [00:42.77] |
So there I was in a strange situation |
| [00:44.61] |
The chauffeur said I can drop you off at the station |
| [00:47.61] |
I said no man, no don't |
| [00:50.10] |
I tell you when to stop keep your eyes on the road |
| [00:52.46] |
You don't have to be gay to make a friend feel good OK |
| [00:59.52] |
No, you don't have to be gay to make a friend feel good OK |
| [01:07.15] |
You don't have to be gay to make a friend feel good OK |
| [01:12.59] |
Two hours later, she was still at it |
| [01:15.79] |
The driver had to refill gasoline and shit |
| [01:17.80] |
Baby baby, introduce yourself |
| [01:20.08] |
What's your name, girl? |
| [01:22.27] |
My name is Fred |
| [01:23.36] |

| [01:24.42] |
Fred, yeah |
| [01:25.51] |
Fred, a'what a'what did you say? |
| [01:27.63] |
Now that put me back a bit 'cos I'm not gay |
| [01:30.31] |

| [01:57.56] |
Just think of me that night and what I went through |
| [02:01.90] |
I thought it was Helen or Marie or whatever, giving me head |
| [02:07.46] |
Until I realised it was this dude called Fred ... |
