Taxi driver, tell your children that the party has begun
You have suffered for the anger of the passengers enough
Waiter, waiter, please believe me
I am laying down my purse
I am laying down the small change
Please forgive me
Forgive the customers

Everybody needs some money to spare
(Taxi driver)
Everybody needs some money to spare
(Please, belive me)
Everybody's bitching 'cause they can't get enough
And it's hard to hold on
When there's no money to earn

Change!
You know you're gonna live thru the rain
Darling, you can keep the change
Change!
Don't let your love turn to hate
I promise, you can keep the change
Keep the change
Keep the change
Honey, you can keep the change

Tell me, bellboy
When I hurt you, do you keep it all inside?
Do you tell me all's forgiven
And just hide behind your pride

Everybody needs some money to spare
(Taxi driver)
Everybody needs some money to spare
(Please, belive me)
Everybody's bitching 'cause they can't get enough
And it's hard to hold on
When there's no money to earn

Change!
You know you're gonna live thru the rain
Darling, you can keep the change
Change!
Don't let your love turn to hate
I promise, you can keep the change
Keep the change
Keep the change
Honey, you can keep the change

Walking in the footsteps
Of society's lies
You don't like what you see, do you, hon?
Sometimes I wish that I had change
Sometimes I have none

You stand out in the rain
So no one sees you cryin'
Trying to wash away the pain
Bellboy, waiter

There's tips I've missed I can't erase
Every night we fall from grace

It's hard with the world in your face
Trying to hold on, trying to hold on

Change!
You know you're gonna live thru the rain
Darling, you can keep the change
Change!
Don't let your love turn to hate
I promise, you can keep the change
Keep the change
Keep the change
Honey, you can keep the change
