Playing the Tax Game
That which is due Caesar
And what he thinks is due himself
Are not necessarily the same.
Got to play, you know, the tax game.
Figure this; figure that like a rat
Deduct this, deduct that
Trying to outdo the tax man,
Necessary that you have a good plan:
Keep those records, but don’t lose your shape;
Get some exercise and avoid a saggy nape.
If your neck is all hangin’ down
As you write those numbers with a frown,
Think o’ that money goin’ to waste
By your government always in a haste
To spend it on this or that – “program,”
For most of which ya give not a damn!
Let me decide where to give my money.
Maybe I’ll go out and buy some honey;
Give it to the poor or fix a door!
Rather that than give it to some federal whore,
Spending money on useless “programs” –
Opening the door to all kinds o’ scams!
Let the poor man plead for donations
If he can’t pay what is his due;
Plenty of folks out there
Who care about more than just the air.
