Sing me a song...

[HV Ken]

So this morning I woke up to the song "Piano Man" by Billy Joel on the radio, and I came up with this:

Sing me a song I'm the Tax Mann

Tell me how you couldn't pay

Share me the story of your life

And ask me to make your balance due go away

Oh, la la la, di de da...

Disclaimer: this is just tongue-in-cheek fun - any resemblance to an actual client is completely coincidental!

I find myself singing the Beatles' Taxman song off and on during the tax season. Even though I'm not the govt taking the taxes, the song pops in my head a lot during this time.

'Let me tell you how it will be ...'

Here's a good one when you feel like singing:

Not tax related, but might come in handy for some of you:

Rita you are terrific!

[Kea]

Every time I get to mark a file "completed," I hum "Another one bites the dust..."

[RitaB]

Rita you are terrific!

Well, I've heard a few of the things in the song, just tryin to help the bruthas out.

Every time I get to mark a file "completed," I hum "Another one bites the dust..."

"Hey, hey..."

Thanks, Rita, I just played that for hubby, and he got a good laugh from it!

I sing 'Another one off the desk! and another one gone, and another one gone, another one off the desk!'

[Kea]

Hey Joan - I like your version better! With my version, I had to keep reminding myself that I meant the file, not the client.

Priceless, John! Reminds me of the clients who bug you after tax season with their major problem for the following year. After hours of research and guidance they remark that their problem was so simple afterall. It's like they don't want to acknowledge all of the work prior to preparing the return......oh yes, I'm billing time!
