The cab is outside
You've finished your beer
You're saying some sweet lines
That I wanna hear
But it don't take no Einstein to see that it's clear
You're gonna break my heart tonight
You're gonna break my heart tonight
And girl that's alright
It's black and it's white
And if it ain't too much to ask
Could you break it quite fast?
Oh I'm right on the edge
Seeing your clothes on the bed
Oh I'll do what I can
To take it like a man
The old taxi driver
Looks down to his feet
The audience sit there in silence and
Hold on to their seats
For here comes the punchline
So short and so mean
You're gonna break my heart tonight
You're gonna break my heart tonight
And girl that's alright
You've made up your mind
You've got too much to swallow
And you can't wait till tomorrow
I'm right on the edge
Seeing our clothes on the bed
I'll do what I can
To take it like a man
