“Taxman” by BEATLES
This song, largely critical of the British government’s taxation system, kicks off the The Beatles’ seventh studio album, Revolver. George Harrison was inspired by just how much of The Beatles’ earnings were going straight to the Treasury. Helped along by a few one-liners from John Lennon, the song masterfully incorporates the names of real-life politicians in a witty, tongue-in-cheek way.
