Resolved by the Senate, the House of Delegates concurring, That the Beatles’ “Taxman” be designated as the official song of the Commonwealth, the words of which are as follows:

Let me tell you how it will be

There’s one for you, nineteen for me

‘Cause I’m the taxman,

yeah, I’m the taxman

Should five per cent appear too small

Be thankful I don’t take it all

‘Cause I’m the taxman,

yeah I’m the taxman

If you drive a car, I’ll tax the street,

If you try to sit, I’ll tax your seat.

If you get too cold I’ll tax the heat,

If you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet.

Don’t ask me what I want it for

If you don’t want to pay some more

‘Cause I’m the taxman, yeah, I’m the taxman

Now my advice for those who die

Declare the pennies on your eyes

‘Cause I’m the taxman, yeah, I’m the taxman

And you’re working for no one but me.
