Verse 1

They say Taylor was a good girl, never one to be late
complain, express ideas in her brain   
Working on the night shift, passing out the tickets,
you're gonna have to pay her if you want to park here   
Well, mommy's little dancer has quite a little secret
working on the streets now, never gonna keep it   
It's quite an imposition and now she's only wishing
that she would have listened to the words they said  
Poor Taylor

Chorus

She just wanders around, unaffected by 
the winter winds and she'll pretend that
she's somewhere else, so far and clear 
About two thousand miles from here

Verse 2

Peter Patrick pitter patters on the window 
but Sunny Silhouette won't let him in 
Poor old Pete's got nothing because he's been falling 
Somehow Sunny knows just where he's been 
He thinks that singing on Sunday is gonna save his soul 
now that Saturday is gone 
Sometimes he thinks that he's on his way
but I can see  
that his brake lights are on

Chorus

He just wanders around, unaffected by 
the winter winds and he'll pretend that 
he's somewhere else, so far and clear 
About two thousand miles from here

Verse 3

Such a tough enchilada, filled up with nada
giving what she gotta give to get a dollar bill   
Used to be a limber chicken, time's a been a ticking
Now she's finger licking to the man
With the money in his pocket, flying in his rocket
Only stopping by on his way to a better world  
If Taylor finds a better world  
then Taylor's gonna run away
