Bought a car just the other day
Man could that baby run
But you know what they always say
There's always a better one

Found a girl just the other day
Her hair was like the sun
Some time soon she'll be turning grey
There's always a better one

Well I wrote a song just the other day
The best thing I ever sung
Another band began to play
There's always a better one

Consumption tax! On every breath
Consumption tax! Don't stop till death
Consumption tax! Living in Hell
Consumption tax! Of a solar cell?

Got a tumour in my brain
It's creeeping to my lungs
And I searched around in vain
I can't find a better one

Consumption tax! {Has won Jesus?}
Consumption tax! Thirty silver pieces
Consumption tax! On every caress
Consumption tax! Took a pound of flesh

Tax! Took my right hand
Consumption tax! Took the Kooris' land
Tax! Took my Christmas cheer
Consumption tax! Took Van Gogh's ear

Tax! Consumption Tax! Took my right hand
Tax! Took the Kooris' land
