The Taxman

Where's your sea craft?

It ain't no sea craft, it's me dinghy and it's under the wharf.

The Taxman

Ah ha. aah-ha. This your goods?

Popeye

They is.

The Taxman

Yeah. You're new in town right?

Popeye

If you call this a town, yes.

The Taxman

Well, first of all, there's 17 cents new in town tax, and there's 45 cents rowboat-under-the-wharf tax, and one dollar leaving-your-junk-lying-around-the-wharf tax, so all together, you owe the Commodore $1.87.

Uh, who's this Commodore?

The Taxman

Is the nature of question? There's a nickel question tax.

How come carrots is a dollar?

$1.50. You buy what I don't feel like selling will cost you $2.00.

All right, there you are. [takes the carrots and tosses Geezil a nickel]

Ah ah. Nope, deadbeat, this is a nickel.

I pays what I feels like payin'! Heh heh heh.

You're not up to no good, are you? Because if you are, there's a 50 cent up-to-no-good tax.

Plus one sunflower, embarrassing the Taxman tax.
