**** TODAYS SONG ******* OFFICAL *******

[BlueApple]

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
If you don't want to pay some more
'Cause I'm the taxman,
Yeah, I'm the taxman

Now my advice for those who die
Declare the pennies on your eyes
'Cause I'm the taxman,
Yeah, I'm the taxman
And you're working for no one but me

Gotta love that song. Who wrote it orginally. I think of SRV whenever its mentioned.

George Harrison wrote it when the Beatles were still together, in April of 1966. He wrote it in frustration of the high taxes in Britain and as soon as someone became rich, the government would take it from you.
