Caro Emerald - No Charge [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
It's raining in Chicago
And I know I'm late
I get into a taxi
It's way past eight
He turned around and looked
At me with big blue eyes
Then he said good evening
I said "my oh my"

[Verse 2]
Good thing he didn't hear me
Underneath my breath
The words came out so quickly
They coulda used a net
He drove me in his Packard
And picked up the speed
Smilin' like I'm falling
At the foot of his feet

[Pre-Chorus]
He said "here we are"
Put his hand and waved
To simply say "No charge"
No charge

[Chorus]
Tell me baby, what does that mean? (no charge)
In an era where the coin is lean (no charge)
Are you loaded?
Are you some kinda dream?
Whadaya mean no charge?

[Verse 3]
Another dinner party
And the crowd's a bore
I've been there twenty minutes
Oh, I need to snore
But there was no escaping
I'm pre-occupied
My chariot awaiting
Valentino inside

[Pre-Chorus]
The rain was fallin'
As I walked outside
Then in twenty seconds
I heard "need a ride?"

[Chorus]
Tell me baby, what does that mean? (no charge)
In era where the coin is lean (no charge)
Are you loaded?
Are you some kinda dream?
Whadaya mean no charge?

[Outro]
Tell me baby, what does that mean? (no charge)
In era where the coin is lean (no charge)
Are you loaded?
Are you some kinda dream?
Whadaya mean no charge?
