Words Someone Has Probably Already Said

Taxi Talk

I know you,
Your car smells like pine
And you've taken me to college
In the morning time.

You know me
Though it's a short drive,
That I also play football and work
A lot more than nine till five.

Thank you
For telling me what you told me.
I promise I'll try harder
To put on my shoes before ringing the taxi.

So, Mr Taxi Driver,
Next time I see your licence,
I'll repeat back to you:
'Planning and Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance'

And then maybe
My world will have changed
It's a long shot, I know,
But being me is driving me deranged.
