Come and lis-sen to my sto-ry bout Jer-ry and his wife

Ev-er'-bo-dy though tthey lived a qui-et lit-tle life

F D

But be-low the sur-face of Cliff, New Mex-i-co

G C

They were mil-lion-aire art thieves, which just goes to show

--Ya ne-ver know, do ya?

C G

So here is the sto-ry of their big art theft

When they cut it from the frame, there was-n'tnoth-in' left

F D

Worth a hun-dred mil-lion ,a real nice haul

G C

But when they took it home, they jus' hung it on the wall

--Right be-hind a door where no-bo-dy could see it but their own -selves

C G

And then they ne-ver tried to sell it Did-n't care a-bout the dough

Seems they just likedthe way it looked and so.

F D

They kep' it fer their-selves in their own bed-room

G C

It was their own lit-tle per-son-al, pri-vate de-Koon

--ing, that is. Twen-ti-eth cen-tu-ry Dutch ex-pres-sion-ist

C G

For thir-ty two years till the day they died

No one else was ev-er al-lowed in-side

F D

Then a dea-ler made an es-tate sale stop

G C

Took a lik-in' to the paint-in' and bought it for his shop

--Did-n't know what he had un-til

C G

At the deal-er's shop, it was re-cog-nized

And when he checked it out ,the deal-er was sur-prised

F D

A sto-len paint-in' worth a hun-dred mill' or more

G C

It scared him half to death jus' to keep it in his store.

--He hid it in the on-ly room that had its own lock. The john.

C G

When he called up the mu-se-um, they could-n't be-lieve

And when they got it back, they were so re-lieved

F D

They were glad to see it, safe from harm,

G C

And they fi-nal-ly put in . . . a bur-glar a-larm

--'Bout time, too.

--Y'all come back now, y'hear?

C G D G

It's a new con-cept we're try-ing And we hope you won't no-tice at all

--Two three four Tell these guys how smart you are

D G

It's just an it-sy bit-sy tax that you will Ne-ver no-tice on your bill

D G

But it adds up in San-ta Fe.

D G

It's not worth a fuss and hol-ler Just a few cents on the dol-lar

D G

And if you don't no-tice that makes it O. K.

--Eight nine ten What's the prob-lem with this plan?

D G

It is a tax up-on a-no-ther tax We're pi-ling tax-es up in stack-ses.

D G

If we don't end this Where will it stop?

D G

Next year, is my guess When you pay the I. R. S.

D G

Here's what they'll tell you at H and R Block:

--Four three two 'Fraid she's got bad news for you

D G

. . . Your ten--for-ty now is done And you're not get-ting a re-fund

D G

That's bad e-nough, but there's some-thing else as well

D G

Ac-cord-ing to this di-a-gram Be-sides what you owe Un-cle Sam

D G

There's a tax on your tax that you owe Aunt Mi-chelle.

--Eight nine ten Bye-bye now this is the end!

Then they heard a-bout the Cy-ber Nin-jas

They can do for usWhat they did for those folks

Out in Ma-ri-cope"

Well, a deal was made for fif-ty K

go-ing door--to--door

Ask-ing "Who'd ya vote for?"

But the Coun-ty Com-mis-sioners

Gave the au-di-tors full sup-port

That is, un-til the Nin-jas gave their fi-nal re-port:

(And they said)

"May-be some votes were sto-len

But we can't con-firm that heist

If it happ-ened, we did-n't hear it

May-be it was a spi-rit

Might 'a been a POLL-ter-geist!"
