Cheese Tax LYRICS [Official] by Puppy Songs

LYRICS:
The cheese tax! The cheese tax!

You gotta pay the cheese tax
Every time you're cooking
When the cheese comes out
This puppy comings looking

The rules are the rules
And the facts are the facts
And when the cheese drawer opens
You gotta pay the tax

The cheese tax! The cheese tax!

Hand it over quick
Or things might get ugly
I can get really loud
I'm a really barky puppy

I'm not just asking
Cuz I'm looking for snacks
This is real important business
And you gotta pay the tax

The cheese tax! The cheese tax!
The cheese tax!

Cheddar is acceptable, and Parmesan is fine
But a little bit of Gouda would really blow my mind
There's no escaping, so don't try to dodge
Pay the dairy tariff! The collection of fromage!

The cheese tax! The cheese tax!
The cheese tax!

Lost my Labrador a month back. She loved cheese and was definitely a cheese tax inspector. Love this song as it makes me smile remembering her

[hotelmario]

I don't even own a dog and this song haunts my dreams. It's unbelievably catchy, _disturbingly_ catchy.

[bbrbbr-ongd]

Feels like it's from a stop-motion movie that doesn't exist. 💀

[noahdoyle]

"Wow, what a great song!"
"Oh, I wish I could find the lyrics..."
"Hey, there's a lyric video!"
"Oh no, it was taken down, a copyright strike..."
"Wait, it was by the guy who made the song, and he has his own lyric version!"

A rollercoaster from start to finish. This has become one of my family's favorite songs - thank you very much!

[hunterwulfstern]

This song has been stuck in my head the past few days since I first heard it, and I feel obligated to learn the whole song off by heart now.
Well guess I have to pay the tax one way or another.

[TrueDarkSparda]

I can see this in a movie set in the medieval times and during the end bridge a dude gets thrown into a barred carriage shouts "But I wasn't even cooking with cheese!" before being hauled off to jail for tax evasion.

[mattrexpuns]

I've only ever heard the first stanza and thought that was it. Imagine my surprise, terror, and delight to find it's a bigger song

[paulcrescenti]

Brilliant song. I have no friggin clue why, but I will be driving somewhere and this song just enters my head and rolls around and won't leave.

[MagpieWingzz]

I’ve dedicated the rest of the week to memorize this whole song…

[ultra]

I somehow convinced my mom to pay the cheese tax. Now, every time she uses cheese in her cooking, she gives a little bit to our dog. ❤

[LordGrayBack]

Help! This song is going to live rent-free in my head for a month.

[rlewis]

Singing this to my cats every time I open the cheese drawer and those kittens come runnin. 🤦‍♀️😂

[susanscarff]

I sing this everytime it’s cheese time! All 4 dogs come running lol. Love it

[gidzmobug]

I think of our Pitbull (gone a year ago last November) when I hear this. She was a food tax inspector--if I was eating it, she collected! 🤣

[theducknamednewepicla]

The cheese tax ever since it's introduction in December 31st 1995 has caused controversy, many protests and riots like the "cheese riots" broke out.

[breadybonk]

the term "barky puppy" is my new cutest term

[jonathanjones]

My 2 and 1 year olds literally think cheese is two words. They ask everyone for cheese tax, and never just say cheese. This song has forever marked our family, lol

[CarnivoreClubOfficial]

I didn't pay the cheese tax once and now I'm missing my right leg. Let this be a lesson to ensure the cheese tax is paid promptly.

[wingnightbackwards]

You're voice is great and I love the little bit of the voice used when talking to dogs this is perfect

[tasselhoff]

Why?! Dam you! This song has been stuck in my head for 3 days now. My dog even sings the harmony parts now
