It’s The Most Tax-iest Time of the Year[1]

Well, the Taxman[2] he’s yelling, and we’re all foretelling lots of increases, oh dear!

It’s the most tax-iest time of the year

 

It’s the tax, tax-iest season of all

With those tax forms[3] completing

And tax heavy meetings when clients come to call[4]

It’s the tax, tax-iest season of all

 

There’ll be functions for hosting[5]

Great blogs we are posting[6]

And tax planning out in the snow[7]

There’ll be scary CRA/IRS stories

And tales of tax glories from great planning long long ago

 

It’s the most tax-iest time of the year

There’ll be much to-and-fro-ing

And bank accounts will be glowing[8]

When tax plans give cheer

It’s the most tax-iest time of the year

 

There’ll be taxes for filing

And adults will be crying[9]

And carolling out in the snow[10]

There’ll be CRA/IRS assessments

And big-ticket investments of tax plans spun long long ago

 

It’s the most tax-iest time of the year

There are taxes still owing

And hearts won’t be glowing

When tax increases are here!

 

It’s the most tax-iest time

Yes, the most tax-iest time

It’s the most tax-iest time of the year
