(This one's called: "Taxman")
(One, two, three, four, one two)


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 (Taxman)
If you don't want to pay some more (Taxman)
'Cause I'm the taxman

Yeah, I'm the taxman

Taxman!


If I reduce it again you'll see
(Ah, ah, Boris Yeltzin)
Get back more at the V.A.T.
(Ah, ah, Mr. Bush)
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman

(If you get a head head), I'll tax your hat
(If you get a pet pet), I'll tax your cat
(If you wipe your feet feet), I'll tax your mat
(If you're overwieght weight), I'll tax your fat

Now my advise to those who die
(Taxman!)
Declare the pennies on your eyes
(Taxman!)
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman.

And you're working for no one, but me
(Taxman!)

Yes, I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
