Why taxing the rich is so hard

Et in Arcadia Ego

The King, he asked, "Why tax the rich? It raises little money?"
The taylor said, "My complex weave, it turns my profits runny."
Accountants talked of dividends that left the taxman baffled.
Then Monte laughed and laughed and laughed; the taxes were all snaffled.

Chorus

Et in Arcadia Ego
Et in Arcadia Ego...


(Repeat a billion times)
