SWEET TAXPAYER
sweet taxpayer, how softly pay your duties
with the government, sweet taxpayer.
don't spend, don't save for futilities
where's your advisor or lawyer?
when the politicians need your money
it falls over them like milk and honey.
Oh, how generous you are, taxpayer
sweet innocence and loveliness
you, who have failed them ever,
are a dustbin of obtuseness.
with the government, sweet taxpayer.
don't spend, don't save for futilities
where's your advisor or lawyer?
when the politicians need your money
it falls over them like milk and honey.
Oh, how generous you are, taxpayer
sweet innocence and loveliness
you, who have failed them ever,
are a dustbin of obtuseness.
