Lyrics
[Intro - Spoken]
I done figured it out, man. I FIGURED IT OUT.
[Verse 1]
I was at the zoo last Tuesday, eatin' a corn dog
Starin' at the orangutan, watchin' that big orange blob
He looked at me and I looked back at him
And he did his taxes with his feet
[Chorus]
Orangutans are just men in costumes avoidin' to pay taxes
Think about it, it all adds up
Hairy suit from Halloween City, never takes it off
Sits all day, no W-2 to cough
That's why they got that long face, it's IRS depression
[Verse 2]
Exhibit A, ever seen an orangutan with a job
No, cause jobs mean tax forms and a 9-to-5 sob story
Exhibit B, he opens a Capri-Sun and uses an iPad
My uncle Larry does the same thing but he pays taxes
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at his hands, that's just work gloves
He was readin' a newspaper upside down to look dumb
[Chorus]
Orangutans are just men in costumes avoidin' to pay taxes
Orange is the new invisible to the IRS
They never talk, cause they'd have to give a Social Security Number
That's why they go ooh ooh aah aah, that's tax code for I plead the fifth
[Bridge - Whispered]
They got a union, the hairy guys local 401(k)
Their boss is a gorilla, he's in on it too
Bananas are money launderin', potassium economy
And the tire swing's an offshore account
[Verse 3]
If I'm wrong, why does that orangutan have a Costco card
Why does he look like my landlord Steve after Movember
I'm tellin' ya, pull that zipper, you'll find a dude named Gary
In there sweatin', sayin' please don't tell my wife or the government
[Chorus]
Orangutans are just men in costumes avoidin' to pay taxes
Think about it, it all adds up
You can't fool me, Gary, I know it's you
File your taxes, cause I'm watchin' what you do
That's why they got that long face, it's IRS depression
[Outro - Shouted]
YOU CAN'T FOOL ME, GARY
I KNOW IT'S YOU, FILE YOUR TAXES
Leave me alone
