Saving the Best for Last |
Got into a cab in New York City |
Was an Oriental man behind the wheel |
Started talking about heaven |
Like it was real |
Said «They got mansions in heaven |
Yeah the angels are building one for me right now |
And I know… |
They’re saving the best for last |
Look around this town |
And tell me that it ain’t so |
They’re saving the best for last |
Don’t ask me how I know |
'Cause it must be |
Saving the best for last for me |
You can go a hundred miles a second |
Don’t have to drive no lousy cab |
Got everything you want and more man |
And the King picks up the tab |
You walk around on streets of gold all day |
And you never have to listen |
To what these customers say and I know… |
They’re saving the best for last |
Look around this town |
And tell me that it ain’t so |
They’re saving the best for last |
Don’t ask me how I know |
'Cause it must be |
Saving the best for last for me |
I remember when I was a child |
Lost in the streets of Chinatown |
My mother had a vision and I was found |
(Saving the best for last for me) |
Oh-oh -- saving the best for last |
And when I finally take this journey |
I’m gonna wave goodbye to Earth |
Gonna throw this meter in the ocean |
And prove what I was worth |
And I don’t care who tries to flag me down |
They’re gonna have to find another ride uptown |
And I know |
They’re saving the best for last…" |
