Jens Lekman - Black Cab (Acoustic) Lyrics

Jens Lekman Lyrics

"Black Cab (Acoustic)"

Oh no, goddamn
I missed the last tram
I killed a party again
Goddamn, goddamn
I want to sleep in my bed
I want to clean up this head
Don't want to look this dead
Don't want to feel this dread

I killed a party again
I ruined it for my friends
Oh, you're so silent, Jens
Well, maybe I am, maybe I am
Now at the Central Station
No time for being patient
I feel like going home
But at the same time I don't

Black cab
Black cab
Black cab
Black cab
Black cab
Black cab
Black cab
Black cab

And I've heard all those stories
About the black cabs and the way they drive
That if you take a ride with them
You may not come back alive
They might be psycho killers
But tonight I really don't care
So I said "Turn up the music
Take me home or take me anywhere"

Black cab
Black cab
Black cab
Black cab

You don't know anything
So please don't ask me no questions
You don't know anything
So please don't ask me no questions
You don't know anything
So please don't ask me no questions
Just turn the music up
And keep your mouth shut

Black cab
Black cab
Black cab
Black cab
