Don't Have to Pay the Taxes
By Franklin Price
7/22/2016
Don't have to pay the taxes
As long as we're not caught
Or if there is the money
So the system can be bought
Many are above the fray
At least they think it's so
Ignore tax laws as their written
So they may better use the dough
Taxes are for others
From income down to sales
Let fools pay all the taxes
While rich avoid them and the jails
The poor ignore from hunger
The rich from wanting more
The working class the only ones
Bringing money through the door
Let's really sock it to them
Say the Senate and the House
Let's tax the working more and more
Don't forget the children and the spouse
Give the rich the breaks we can
Likely we will get a share
Then we can vote them further breaks
To show them that we care
Vote ourselves more raises
From the taxes we've collected
And use the money from the rich
To see we're re-elected
