Hi, welcome to America! Glad you made it. | |
On the left you’ll notice a coin slot. | |
Insert dollars only please. | |
Got no bread for the rent, | |
I got my next two paychecks spent | |
And my debts are rising faster than a rocket | |
Money comes, doesn’t stay, now they say I’ve got to pay | |
And the man’s got his hands in yo’ pocket | |
I got the red, white, and blues, cause I got to pay my dues | |
To the Land of the Free, so they call it | |
I say, Help me through this mess | |
And they say, Kiss my IRS | |
And they left me here with the red white and blues | |
They demand I supply, but my deficit is high | |
And I don’t know how I’m ever gonna make it | |
While I watch my taxes soar, they say, Son you owe us more! | |
And if you don’t hand it over we’ll just take it | |
Got the red, white, and blues, cause I got to pay my dues | |
To the Land of the Free, so they call it | |
I say, Help me through this mess | |
And they say, Kiss my IRS | |
And they left me here with the red white and blues | |
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) | |
You see friends, Uncle Sam needs your money! | |
We got to support the CIA, the FBI, | |
And all of our associates at the BCCI! | |
Clark, he didn’t know anything-he didn’t know ANYthing! | |
We gotta fund some studies on UFOs, | |
We gotta help out all those poor S and Ls, | |
We gotta have a meeting with eating…so | |
We can’t give you a break, now can we, son? So, | |
I tell ya what we’re gonna do: | |
We’re gonna take your house, | |
We’re gonna take your car, | |
We’re gonna take your wife, | |
And we’re gonna take your guitar, | |
And if you got any dreams we’re gonna take them, too! | |
Heh heh heh heh—have a nice day! | |
I’ve got the red, white, and blues, cause I got to pay my dues | |
To the Land of the Free, so they call it | |
I say, Help me through this mess | |
And they say, K-k-k-kiss my IRS | |
And they left me here with the red white and blues | |
Come right this way. | |
Welcome to my office. | |
I do a lot of damage from this 12-by-12 cubicle! (laugh) You’ll see! Yeah! | |
You know, I mean, | |
Let me take a couple of examples here of great Americans who’ve contributed to our culture. | |
We like to treat ‘em the way we like to treat ‘em! | |
For instance, Redd Foxx, | |
Well he’s dead, but he had some gold chains on when he was buried, | |
You know, we know how to get in there and get those chains! | |
And, well, ol’ Willie Nelson! | |
Everybody loves him and well, | |
He was manipulated by a couple of big name accounting firms, | |
But that’s not gonna stop us from taking everything he’s got, is it? NO! | |
I’m gonna get you, Willie! Heh heh heh heh. | |
And now, well lemme see, ol’ –uh- Sammy Davis, Jr! Everybody loved him, | |
Well we’ll just chase his wife til she dies and take everything she has, too! | |
Because that’s the way we work! | |
We’re the IRS! We are the United States Government! | |
We spend our money the way it should be spent. | |
You see, for example, in California, | |
All these auto plants are moving down to Mexico, | |
Because the labor rates are cheaper. | |
We provide tax incentives for them to do that, | |
And then we just blame the unemployment on the Japanese! (laugh!) | |
Ding-dong! | |
