Junior Parker - Taxman

Let me tell you how it will be There's one for you and nineteen for me 'Cause I'm the taxman, yes, I'm the taxman (That man is rough; now dig this) Should five per cent appear too small Just be thankful I don't take it all (Taxman is something else, isn't he?) 'Cause I'm the taxman, yes, I'm the taxman (Now dig this) If you drive a truck, I'll tax the street If you try to fix it, I'll tax your seat If you get too cold, I'll tax the heat If you take a walk (now this is awful). I'll tax your feet 'Cause I'm the taxman This is awful Now don't ask me what it's for If you don't wanna pay, pay some more 'Cause I'm the taxman, yes, I'm the taxman (Now dig this) Now my advice for those who die (This is awful) Beware of the pennies on your eyes 'Cause I'm the taxman, yes, I'm the taxman And you're working for me and no one but me The taxman is rough He come and get you any time he wanna Do you believe he come and get your old lady? That taxman is a blip Lyrics found here
