Imagine the Rich Paid Taxes
(Sung to a tune somewhere in the neighbourhood
of Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer)
*
Ooooh!
Imagine
that the Rich paid Taxes
Just the same as you and me!
Yes imagine that the Rich paid Taxes,
how happy then the World would be!
*
We'd have enough
to find a Cure for Cancer
and put an end to Pov-er-ty!
We'd splash lots of cash
to slash Climate Change,
and have spare change
to save the econ-o-myy!

So let's imagine that the Rich paid Taxes
Just the same as you and me!
Yes it's about time that the Rich paid Taxes
and share the Wealth they made from You and Me!
*
We'll track down all
their secret bank accounts
in their Tax-Haven Islands in the Sun.
We'll seize the jewels & Krugerrands
that they hid in Switzerland,
Oh we'll have such Fun!

Sooooh!
Imagine
that the Rich paid Taxes
Just the same as you and me!
Yes imagine that the Rich paid Taxes,
how happy then
the World would beeeeee!
