Lyric

Taxi driver

Be my shrink for the hour

Leave the meter running

It's rush hour

So take the streets if you wanna

Just outrun the demons, could you?

He said, "Allahu akbar"

I told him, "Don't curse me"

"Bo Bo, you need prayer"

I guess it couldn't hurt me

If it brings me to my knees

It's a bad religion (ooh-ooh)

This unrequited love

To me, it's nothing but a one-man cult

And cyanide in my styrofoam cup

I can never make him love me

Never make him love me

Love me

Love me

Love me

Love me

Love me

Love me

Love me

Love me

Love me

Love

Taxi driver, I swear I've got three lives

Balanced on my head like steak knives

I can't tell you the truth about my disguise

I can't trust no one

And you say, "Allahu akbar"

I told him, "Don't curse me"

"Bo Bo, you need prayer"

I guess it couldn't hurt me

If it brings me to my knees

It's a bad religion, oh-oh

Unrequited love

To me, it's nothing but a one-man cult

And cyanide in my styrofoam cup

I can never make him love me

Never make him love me

No, no, ah

It's a, it's a bad religion

To be in love with someone who could never love you

Oh-oh-oh, only bad, only bad religion

Could have me feeling the way I do

- It's already the end -
