Beatles, The - Taxman Lyrics

Complimentary "Taxman" Ringtone

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 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 (ha ha Mr. Wilson) 
If you don't want to pay some more (ha ha 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
