It's chilly, must be time to pay my taxes To fund the schools to do their saintly deeds Get roads repaired and trains back on their tracks: Is The park in need of shears to trim the weeds Help libraries build wings so patrons fly And help the good police have stronger knees Give judges seats to let them ponder why That billionaire needs help to crush his lease I'm good with all this goodness every year Though half the good I pay for I don't use But that should never bother me my dear And here's three dollars so the man don't lose The shredded children dangling from a pole Less hideous than our collective soul
