Chicago |
It was about 6.15 in the morning |
I’m drunk, and I’m high, and I’m in Chicago |
Now, I had just stumbled out of some club, somewhere |
I can’t even remember. |
And I walked to the corner, to hail a cab |
And after 5 empty cabs just passed me by, one finally stopped |
He was this white, mid-western, working-class kinda guy |
You know the type |
So anyway, I jumped in and I said «Hyatt Regency, please.» |
And he looked at me like I was crazy, and said «Where? |
Downtown?» |
And I said «Yeah!» |
Paid no mind |
Now, the whole way down to the Hyatt |
He kept looking at me through the rear-view mirror, with this real suspicious |
stare. |
I ain’t pay him no mind though, cos a brother like me was just |
interested in the beautiful Chicago skyline. |
The way it looked from Lake Shore |
Drive. |
All sparkly and clean in the sunrise |
As we pulled up to the luxurious hotel, and I paid my fare, the cabby turned |
around with a curious grin and asked me: «Where you going? |
To work?». |
and I looked back at him and I said: «Work? |
Brother, I’m going to sleep! |
Paid no mind |
