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
They're saving the best for last
9
Look around this town
10
And tell me that it ain't so
11
They're saving the best for last
12
Don't ask me how I know
13
'Cause it must be
14
Saving the best for last for me
15
You can go a hundred miles a second
16
Don't have to drive no lousy cab
17
Got everything you want and more man
18
And the King picks up the tab
19
You walk around on streets of gold all day
20
And you never have to listen
21
To what these customers say and I know...
22
(Chorus)
23
I remember when I was a child
24
Lost in the streets of Chinatown
25
My mother had a vision and I was found
26
(Saving the best for last for me)
27
Oh-oh -- saving the best for last
28
And when I finally take this journey
29
I'm gonna wave goodbye to Earth
30
Gonna throw this meter in the ocean
31
And prove what I was worth
32
And I don't care who tries to flag me down
33
They're gonna have to find another ride uptown
34
And I know
35
They're saving the best for last..."
