i wake up in the morning i'm thingking of you
in dollars and cents in high heel shoes
i start to think and the headache goes boom
i'm counting the bills that are stacked to the moon
bridge :
the money i'm giving to you
i could live on forever (on the sunny side)
what can i do so my life
turns around for the better (god knows that i tried)
chorus :
taxman woman i keep running
can't you see it's only money
taxman woman i keep running
can't you see it's so hard honey
to keep up with you
i work twice as hard what else can i do
to make up the part that's been taken by you
if it wasn't for you i would be rich
but instead i'm a poor son of a bitch
bridge :
the money i'm giving to you
i could live on forever (on the sunny side)
what can i do so my life
turns around for the better
(god knows that i tried)
chorus :
taxman woman i keep running
can't you see it's only money
taxman woman i keep running
can't you see it's so hard honey
taxman woman i keep running
can't you see that it ain't funny
taxman woman i keep running
can't you see it's so hard honey
to keep up with you
