ELEMENTARY TAXI

 

I jumped into the cab

'Conan Doyle’s Close driver'

Don't worry; he said,

We’ll lose him at the lights Guvna

MY CHAUFFEUR IS A RUSSIAN

 

My chauffeur is a Russian

From a city called Rostov

He’s very good at his job

His name is Pikup Andropov

HACKNEY CARRIAGE’S

 

There is something really special

About riding in black London cabs

Perhaps it is something reassuring

Like the sound of the door slamming

The philosophies varied and many

Of the quiet shy and retiring cabby

Or maybe the unique driving style

The becomes apparent in a short while

The knowledge of every road or lane

Oh look there’s the London eye again

The best thing about them I would say

Is that I don’t use them every day
