NEW LOVE AFFAIRS PART I

Lenny is singing about

the new, yet strange love affair 

I have developed towards taking cabs

sometimes I share, sometimes I don't.

usually they take me home,
once in a while they propose to treat me dinner,

one time they told me I could ride along all night.

I don't take them so much though, 

that means only if mommy is paying,

when there isn't any public transport anymore,

or after a night out when my head spins, my feet hurt and my back aches from all the heavy dancing and seductive beverages.

one time I puked on one.

I could whistle or show some leg 

but guaranteed in five, max,

they find me, no matter how lost I am.

they take my bag, open the door and drive me,

across town, with good legspace, above the ground
I roll the window down and then begin to breathe
in the passenger seat as they are driving me home

and I feel the luckiest girl alive.

I love taking cabs.

but walking all the way home that time with him wasn't that bad either.
