Well, I'm talking to a former engine driver (Dri-ver)

Trying to find out what he used to do

Spit and polished up as good as new

Was to work with lions in a zoo

Yes dear, you heard right

Well, I met a woman working as a waitress (Waitress)

I asked exactly what it was she did

That he lacked a little extra height
 A                              Dmaj7
