...I began singing this song at the start of my working day...great motivation
to be a taxman...LOL[1,2,3,4
Hrmm!
1,2...
1,2,3,4.]
Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
Should five per cent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah I'm the taxman
If you drive a car, I'll tax the street
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold I'll tax the heat
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet
Taxman!
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah I'm the taxman
Don't ask me what I want it for (Aahh Mr. Wilson)
If you don't want to pay some more (Aahh Mr. Heath)
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
Now my advice for those who die
Declare the pennies on your eyes
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
And you're working for no one but me
Taxman!
George Harrison wrote ""Taxman"" in 1966, when he realized that 98% of his earnings were gone in taxes. "
ReplyDelete"I will never be a millionaire"", he said.
In the chorus line you can hear ""Taxman, Mr. Wilson (Prime Minister, in the picture), taxman, Mr. Heath"" (Leader of the Conservative Party by then).
