Premium Member Lax

I once was a little bit lax,
Failing to pay my income tax.
There is no need to guess,
I then faced the IRS;
Was sent to prison to relax.

Now I pay it all back plus three

David Cameron’s should stand down for his deputy to take over
He makes and validates the tax laws, 
What about his character and moral fibre?

Who fancied himself a tax expert
Touting tax tips he tried
Till terribly tongue-tied
Never more will he overexert

For utter despair

There once were some Senators in office
Approving taxes that really cost us
But when an audit was done
The Senators had paid none
These crooks are adding to our losses

Tax-Mania

Heads ache from here to Tazmania.
It’s the economic condition –
Politicians lack contrition.
Tax-mania affects the crania.

Or else the clerk would confiscate his sax

Premium Member TAX FREE

A sly squirrel peddled bright tulips with glee,  
But his cash stash was shady as can be.

  He buried his bucks overnight,
Now he’s rich… in acorns, tax-free!

Premium Member Tricky Tax Plan

America will be great said the man
Starting with a reduced income tax plan
Nothing but a huge joke
He is just a dumb bloke
His reformed tax break I am not a fan

Tax Reform

If it does not require
People like Donald Trump
And corporations
Like General Electric
To pay Taxes to support
Operation of the federal
Government of the USA
Then it is NOT, "Tax Reform"
It is just "Fake News"!

Tax Time Again

Filing your taxes is not much fun.
Do it right so it will be done.
       Your money is gone now.
       You should've bought a cow.
Beef is better than having none.

There was a man from Halifax
Refused to do his income tax
    They tossed him out

Tax Sheet

Trump says that the best way to spoil it
Is flush tax returns down the toilet*
But the IRS said
You'll be deep in the red
Fish 'em out and make sure you boil it!

that Trump had a penchant for
tearing, flushing - and retrieving -
documents from the toilet

Terrifying Tax Time

It’s coming, that time of the year,
to do up my taxes, I fear.
I shake with great fright
and toil through the night.
What’s owed is becoming too clear.

I regret the money I’ve spent
on food and the lights and the rent.
My cat needs a job;
a bank I may rob.
‘Twill do me no good to dissent.
