I Hate the Taxman


"I Hate the Taxman" by Harrison & Thornton (2006)

The revised lyrics change the "voice" of the song from that of an obnoxious tax collector on a power trip to that of a Rothbardian tax protester:

(One, two, three, four, one two)

Let me tell you how it will be
There's none for you, its all for me
'Cause I hate the taxman
Yeah, I hate the taxman

Even five percent appears too large
I'm determined to keep it all
'Cause I hate the taxman
Yeah, I hate the taxman

(If you tax my car car) I'll take to the streets
(If you tax my sit sit) I'll kick your seat
(If you tax my heat heat) I'll knock you cold
(If you tax my feet feet) I'll kick your @#$%^&*(&^%$#$!!!

Taxman!

'Cause I hate the taxman
Yeah, I hate the taxman

Don't ask me what I want it for
(Ah, ah, Mr. Cheney)
So don't you try to take some more
(Ah, ah, Mr. Bush)
'Cause I hate the taxman
Yeah, I hate the taxman

Now my advise for those who try
(Taxman!)
I'll stick these pennies in your eyes
(Taxman!)

'Cause I hate the taxman
Yeah, I hate the taxman

And you're working for no one, says me
(Taxman!)
