Taxman lyrics - The Beatles song

( G. Harrison )

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 percent appear too small.
Be thankful I don't take it all.
'Cause I'm the taxman,
Yeah, I'm the taxman.

If you frive 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!

Don't ask me wat I want it for,
If you don't want to pay some more
'Cause I'm the taxman,
Yeah, I'm the taxman.

Now my advice for those who die:
Beware the pennies on your eye.
'Cause I'm the taxman,
Yeah, I'm the taxman.
And you're working for no one but me.
