[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!!!!
