Chorus
ED x 3
A E D E

Another long day in the cab
I pull out a cold one and rip off the scab
A train goes by shaking the walls
I close my eyes – there’s no room left for thinking at all

I wake up at twenty past five
I splash the dreams out of my still sleeping eyes
A cup of coffee and a cigarette
As healthy a breakfast as I ever seem to get

Chorus
Oh baby I’m trapped in a cage
I want to be near you but you’re so far away
I follow the money all day
I want to be near you but I’m always driving away

I’ll be hungry until my first fare
When my pocket’s been emptied of its too stale air
Fate holds my fortunes in its hand
It blows me around like a loose grain of sand

This city is inside my head
I know every dark corner and every frayed thread
I’ve seen broken hearts on the mend
I’ve seen lovers crumple when they see it’s the end

Chorus
