Let me tell you how it will be There's one for you nineteen for me Cos, I'm the taxman - yeah I'm the taxman
Should five percent appear too small Be thankful I don't take it all Cos, I'm the taxman - 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)
Cos, I'm the taxman - I'm the taxman
Don't ask me what I want it for (Taxman Mr. Clinton) If you don't want to pay some more (Taxman VAT) Cos, I'm the taxman - yeah I'm the taxman And my advice to those who die (Taxman) Declare those pennies on your eyes (Taxman) Cos, I'm the taxman - yeah I'm the taxman And you're working for no-one but me (Taxman)
