    "Looks like..."

    I can't, for the life of me, recall the tune - but there must be one - and lyrics too, that somehow also evade remembrance.
    Definitely the sort of thing for the Proms, certainly it would be sung in it's entirety at the close of all Civil-Servant Christmas parties to send all home with heart up-lifted and spirits a-soaring.

    Perhaps the chorus/refrain...burden, if you will - could justly be guessed at...

    "The law's the law, and justly so
    affecting the whole Nation
    we Tax Inspectors boldly-go
    to harass those of lowly station"

    Come to think of it, that is most probably verse one. Or a skit penned by some office wag, don't you know. Who knows, but the whole may come to me in the course of the day.

    [See link below for illustration of the following...]

    To get to the point. These storm-troopers/ledger-snoopers will have to squeeze quite a few stones ere one yields-up some blood.* Given that the Inland Revenue and Customs and Excise are often the victims in Insolvency and Bankruptcy proceedings this exercise may be no more than a herding of woe.
    If they were to identify shortcomings in book-keeping, and threaten to return, things could improve, but if the intention is to issue demands for payment (calculated through statistical niceties rather than intense investigation) these demands may very well be the final straw to many a small business.
