Roscoe Learns Not To Cheat His Uncle

Roscoe Learns Not to Cheat His Uncle By Elton Camp It’s been years since Roscoe income tax has paid As a man who is self-employed, he had it made From many of his clients, it was cash he demanded He felt not reporting it smart, even if underhanded “The government just wastes most that they get. They are not going to miss mine, not even a bit.” To cheat like that seemed just right in his eyes “Why, because I work, should I be penalized?” About his smart scheme, Roscoe liked to tell And encouraged others to do that way as well A man who worked for salary heard his bragging Notified the IRS that on tax Roscoe was lagging When Roscoe got the audit notice, it was a shock All the neighbors could hear his bony knees knock For the next five years, no return he had to file For he went to prison following his evasion trial
