raise the taxes - eddie noack lyrics

[verse 1]
i laid a million dollars on a deal the other day
but when my lawyer told me how much tax i’d have to pay
i gave the guys their million back and as we left the bar
i made the whole transaction for a good five*cent cigar

[chorus]
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
they just won’t leave our pay alone
and what’s left ain’t worth taking home
[verse 2]
a friend of mine just went to work for 90 bucks a week
he thought the job would help his littlе ol’ starving kids to eat
when he rеceived his pay, he lost his marbles, you can bet
his check was 90 dollars gross to 20 dollars debt

[chorus]
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
they just won’t leave our pay alone
and what’s left ain’t worth taking home

[interlude]

[verse 3]
my congressman has held the floor forever and a day
he’s introduced a bill to give the brooklyn bridge away
when someone said, “how are you gonna pay for such as this?”
he shouted, “i’ve a plan, my friends, that simply cannot miss”

[chorus]
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
they just won’t leave our pay alone
and what’s left ain’t worth taking home
[verse 4]
i won a jackpot in a quiz on a tv show
a gang of people asked me what i’d do with all that dough
my money’s gone and if i thought i had a case, i’d sue
all the guys can make it with internal revenue

[chorus]
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
they just won’t leave our pay alone
and what’s left ain’t worth taking home
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
they just won’t leave our pay alone
and what’s left ain’t worth taking home
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
raise the taxes (raise the taxes)
they just won’t leave our pay alone
and what’s left ain’t worth taking home
