I'm fairly sure that the lyric:
"I tell the taxi driver
To the park, a higher tone"
Is actually
""I tell the taxi driver
To the Park-o, Hyatt-o"
As in the Park Hyatt hotel, a famous Tokyo landmark hotel that featured in 'Lost in Translation' and a frequent destination for wandering tourists. The addition of the '-o' is a stereotypical Japanese pronunciation of Western words.
