Lyrics
Well I'm the mighty Taxman and I never give a break, the more you work, the more you make, the more I got to take
Well I'm the mighty Taxman and I steal from you each day, I'm buying votes and getting power from the ones that just don't pay, Yal
Chorus
Taxman,give it to me,
Taxman, give it to me,
Taxman, give it to me,
Give me all you make
Well I'm the mighty Taxman and you know that I ain't funny, I'm politicians, I'm government, I'm taking all your money
Well I'm the mighty Taxman and I take away your hope,I steal it for the other half, then I cut your families throat, Yal
Chorus
Taxman, Taxman, give it to me,
Taxman, Taxman,give it to me,
Taxman, Taxman,give it to me,
give me all you make
repeat last chorus
