LYRICS:
Make them pay four months of earnings (oh, that's a good one)
Have them look for lost receipts (ooh, I like it!)
They'll have about as much fun
as their last colonoscopy
People everywhere will get ripped off…
the paper version of the Apple Watch
And we'll dance all night, it's the best code ever
Some folks pay a lot, others they pay never
And you'll get tax breaks if you're really clever
It'll take so long, it's the best code ever
They'll be like "oh, oh no"
We'll be like "yeah, yeah, yeah."
We'll be like "awww."
You may have heard that all your info
on our systems can be hacked with ease
But rest assured if they don't get them
they'll be in the care of folks like these
Yes historians will all agree
among the greatest works in history
And we'll dance all night, it's the best code ever
Some folks pay a lot, others they pay never
and if you don't comply you'll go to jail, however
Why would you not file? It's the best code ever
They'll be like "Oh, oh no"
We'll be like "yeah, yeah, yeah"
