Plot / Description

This commercial shows a car-full of people singing along to a song while driving through the city at night. They are all singing along to "Just a Friend" by Biz Markie. We see a guy in the passenger seat, and a guy and two girls in the back. We don't learn who's in the driver's seat until he turns up the radio and starts singing with them, and it turns out that he's a taxi driver taking them home after a night at the bar. The tag line, "Let A Stranger Drive You Home" is their way to prevent drunk driving.

Voiceover

(Lyrics) 
I said, "How do you like the show?"  
she said, "I was very amused" 
I started throwin' bass, she started throwin' back mid-range 
But when I sprung the question, she acted kind of strange 
Then when I asked, "Do ya have a man?" she tried to pretend 
Everytime that I called her it seemed somethin' was brewin' 
I called her room, a guy picked up, and then I called again 
I said, "Yo, who was that?" "Oh, he's just a friend" 
Don't gimme that, don't even gimme that 
Oh baby you, you got what I need 
But you say he's just a friend 
You say he's just a friend
