I'll Be Your Chauffeur Lyrics

I'll be your chauffeur
Drive you to a distant shore
Fill the tank with gas and dreams
The twinkle of the stars shall be our semaphore
And guide us to that place
A better place
then we shall stay in our Eden restored

I'll be your chauffeur
The go-fer who will fetch and carry you home
So curl up on this mobile sofa
I'll turn the key and let these four wheels roam
We'll take it at a steady pace
Or find a shooting star to chase
In a carriage made of leather, wood, and chrome

I'll check the water
I'll take the wheel
I'll jump a red light if that's how you feel

I'll be your chauffeur
No diversion shall deter
I'll wear the uniform
The engine shall purr as if metal were fur
I'll be your chauffeur
No destination is too far
We'll turn the mileage over
The payment we shall disregard
And we will leave this place
For another place
A ticker tape welcome awaits us in the stars

I'll check the water
I'll take the wheel
I'll jump a red light if that's how you feel

I'll be your chauffeur, yeah
I'll be your chauffeur, yeah
I'll be your chauffeur, yeah
I'll be your chauffeur, yeah

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

You absolutely must hear this song. It is soooo-hooo cool. If you like Love & Rockets, you will like this.

Personally, I like the David J-influenced songs of L&R more than the Daniel Ash songs.
