Death & Taxes

[Verse 1] Well They say the only sure thing in life Is death and taxes Cut you like a sharp knife Can't escape 'em They're always on your tail No matter how you run No matter how you bail [Verse 2] Death's knockin' at your door It's right behind Tappin' on your shoulder Can't leave it all behind Taxes comin' 'round Takin' all your dough No matter what you do They'll never let you go (oh no) [Chorus] Death and taxes They're a team that ain't playin' Gotta face 'em both No time for delayin' But hey Let's keep it light and have some fun Cause we all know Life's a race that can't be won (ooh yeah) [Verse 3] Life's a show, with every scene A twist of fate, (a splash of gre-en) Clock's ticking, (time's a thief) Steals your moments, (like a silent chief) The chase is wild, every day a maze Find your path, through the haze [Verse 4] Night whispers, (shadows merge) Life's edges meeting, (on the verge) Dreams on credit, joy on loan Life's a party, (though we moan) Break free, find your peace In this life, lease-by-lease [Bridge] Hang on, the ride ain't slow Ups and downs, the way we go Free tickets, (but the ride ain't cheap) Costs more than what we keep [Chorus] [Sax solo] [Chorus] [End]
