That night Cutie called a cab.

Baby, don't do it

She left her East Side room so drab.

Baby, don't do it

She went out alone in town

Knowing it would make her lover frown.

Death cab for Cutie

Death cab for Cutie

Someone's going to make you pay your fare.



The cab was racing through the night.

Baby, don't do it

His eyes, they were keeping Cutie in sight.

Baby, don't do it

When he saw Cutie it gave him a thrill

Don't you know that baby cabs can kill?

Death cab for Cutie

Death cab for Cutie

Someone's going to make you pay your fare.



Cutie, don't you play with fate.

Don't you leave your love alone.

If you go out on this date

His heart will turn to stone.

Bad girl Cutie, what have you done?

Baby, don't do it

Slipping, sliding down on Highway 31.

Baby, don't do it

The traffic lights change from green to red.

They tried to stop but they both wound up dead.

Death cab for Cutie

Death cab for Cutie

Someone's going to make you pay your fare.

Someone's going to make you pay your fare.

Someone's going to make you pay your fare

Someone's going to make you pay your fare.
