TaxmanThe Power Station

Released: September 30, 1996

Songwriter: George Harrison

Producer: Bernard Edwards

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
(Taxman Mr. Clinton)
If you don't want to pay some more
(Taxman vat)
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
And my advice for 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)
