Generate meaning
1
Got into a cab in New York City
2
Was an Oriental man behind the wheel
3
Started talking about heaven
4
Like it was real
5
Said "They got mansions in heaven
6
Yeah the angels are building one for me right now
7
And I know
8
[Chorus]
9
They're saving the best for last
10
Look around this town
11
And tell me that it ain't so
12
They're saving the best for last
13
Don't ask me how I know
14
Cause it must be
15
Saving the best for last for me
16
You can go a hundred miles a second
17
Don't have to drive no lousy cab
18
Got everything you want and more man
19
And the King picks up the tab
20
You walk around on streets of gold all day
21
And you never have to listen
22
To what these customers say and I know
23
[Chorus]
24
I remember when I was a child
25
Lost in the streets of Chinatown
26
My mother had a vision and I was found
27
(Saving the best for last for me)
28
Oh-oh, saving the best for last
29
And when I finally take this journey
30
I'm gonna wave goodbye to Earth
31
Gonna throw this meter in the ocean
32
And prove what I was worth
33
And I don't care who tries to flag me down
34
They're gonna have to find another ride uptown
35
And I know
36
They're saving the best for last"
