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
