[Chorus]

taxed to live

waht are we living for?

taxed to live

wondering what's right or wrong

taxed to live

what are we living for?

taxed...to...live...

i was taught the best things in life are free

but i have to pay for the air that i breathe

every time i turn around they want my bux

say the wrong thing and i'm out of luck

[Chorus]

all they want is money all i want is to live

my debts are paid i've given all that i can give

milking my hard earned dollars and cents

what will they tax my dead body next

taxed to live [x8]

we pay to be born

we pay for our dreams

we're taxed for our lives and our beliefs

we pay for our deaths

don't get back what we give

we pay to grow old

we're taxed to live!!!!
