The Tax Avoider's Song

amazonitunes

There's a triangle over Bermuda where planes fall out the sky
and another one over Panama where our taxes go to die
and even the old Prime Minister is doing it on the sly
and the Queen and her mates and Thatcher's kids
are bleeding the country dry
 
and in the British Virgin Islands they're not worthy of the name
and Switzerland is beautiful but it's guilty of the same
and Hong Kong may be only small but it's still playing the game
these countries hide enormous wealth while we're circling the drain
 
and Ireland holds a place that's deep within me
it's music and it's people both set me free
my only problem's with it's economic policy
the number one tax avoider's destination country
 
and I don't care if it's legally black, white or grey
it's morally reprehensible that you should pay
less than your fair share in a country you trade
where your workers live and love and their families stay
 
there's a triangle over Bermuda where planes fall out the sky
and another one over Panama where our taxes go to die
and in the Cayman Islands they'll feed you to the crocodiles
and you can tell everyone in the whole wide world and they'll just sit back and smile
