Voodoo Taxi Lyrics


Just how much would you like baby
Two three pound loaf
Cheaper on Tuesday
Inside this cab is like a Mexican hell
Roll down that window baby
Swell
Cackles we scream
Laughter silly
And Broadways' so small
I could hug it so easy
Well flag acid wrath
Arms and legs are waving
Well stick my pin
Voodoo taxi
Stick my pin
Voodoo taxi
Cause I like the way the sun comes up at night

And I dig the man with only four hair
And I dig the girl that lives on the 5th floor
And I like a high that takes you way up to the sky
You fall down
Down on the ground
You go boom
And the crosslegged angels they spin out the room
But the pupils in your eye, they rival the moon
They go boom boom boom boom boom
Voodoo Taxi
Boom boom boom boom boom
Voodoo Taxi
And then the drugs go
Pins and needles, needles and pins
It's a happy man, man that grins
Pins and needles, needles and pins
It's a happy man, man that grins
Down down down down
You fall down
You fall down
The drunken the rag dolls they bathe in the color
Sweet poet black lord is pulling me closer
Well the back seat kewpie creep
Broke my neck
And the hurricane head is flogged for a dollar
You fall down
Down on the ground
You go boom
And the crosslegged angels they spin out the room
But the pupils in your eye, they rival the moon
They go boom boom boom boom boom
Voodoo Taxi
Boom boom boom boom boom
Voodoo Taxi
So get away
Find the ground
It's a brand new town
To go around
All these drugs
Ah
Come on now
Baby go swimming
You fall down
Down on the ground
You go boom
And the crosslegged angels they spin out the room
But the pupils in your eye, they rival the moon
They go boom boom boom boom boom
Voodoo Taxi
Boom boom boom boom boom
Voodoo Taxi
Is that my head on your shoulder
Is that my head on your shoulder

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
"Formed in the East Village in 1980 by Georgia-born/New Orleans-raised painter-turned-singer Parker DuLany with Texan guitarist Phil Gammage and rhythm section Russell Berke and Marcy Saddy, the early Certain General aimed at being 'a pop version of the Contortions'. James Chance clearly influences the jerky punk-funk of 1981's Touch but 1982's Hello My God owes more to the Doors and the Velvet Underground, and by the mid-80s with new bassist Joe Lupo they were dealing in thumping psychedelia [Voodoo Taxi]. These Manhattan live scene stalwarts supported Liquid Liquid at Hurrah's and played Max's, CBGB and Danceteria, but missed opportunities, ill luck and manager Ruth Polsky's tragic death meant they never broke into the mainstream." - Jon Harrington
