Taxman, Mr Thief - Live at the Whisky, West Hollywood, CA - 06/04/1977 - Late Show
This is called "Taxman"
You work hard, you make money
There ain't no one in this world who can stop you
You work hard, you went hungry
Now the taxman is out to get you
You worked hard and you slaved and slaved for years
You plead, and you plead, and plead for years
He hates you, he loves money
And he'll steal your shit and think that it's funny
Like the Beatles, he ain't human
Now the taxman is out to get you
You worked hard and slaved and slaved for years
And you plead, break your back
Well, it's just not fair
Taxman, Mr. Heath
He's looking for a run-in, yeah
