We're in a shiny black taxi cab Cruising through busy streets! Neon lights shining bright On shiny black leather seats! Hang a left hang a right! On the corners outta-site!
Bridge Midnight traffic light green's for go-go! Backstreet joyride, we love soho!
Chorus #1 Shiny black, shiny black! Shiny black taxi cab! When you're trowing up You feel bad In a shiney black taxi cab! In a shiny Taxi cab!
Oh-woah!
Our meter's doing overtime Suberbia has gone to sleep! As the city starts to come alive And everybody's on the street! Late shows! adult mags! Sleezy brown dirty macs!
Bridge x1
Chorus #1
Shiny black, shiny black! Shiny black taxi cab! Havin' the most fun you've ever had In a shiny Taxi cab!
Spoken male voice "plumstead? you must be joking. "

Chorus #1
Spoken male voice "d'you know I had them girls in The back of the cab the other week Sick all over the back seat I had to charge 'em double They ought'a bring back the birch You know, bring back national service Bring back hanging! hanging? Hanging's to good for 'em I'm not prejudice or anything You know these mini-cab drivers They've got no tax, no insurance Some of 'em don't even have a bleedin' car! Anyway john, where yer wanna go then... "
