Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Welcome to your baseline year
Twenty twenty-five is here
First full year as resident
All your income's evident
From Toronto to New York
Every dollar does the work
Worldwide reporting starts today
No more partial year delays

[Chorus]
Full year, full scope, full compliance time
Every affiliate in line
W-W-I, that's worldwide income high
F-A-R, foreign affiliate star
Twenty twenty-five alive
Your compliance rhythm thrives

[Verse 2]
January first you started clean
Canadian resident on the scene
Twelve full months of obligation
Cross-border tax coordination
US corps and Canadian too
All reporting falls on you
Form filing deadlines in a row
This is how your patterns grow

[Chorus]
Full year, full scope, full compliance time
Every affiliate in line
W-W-I, that's worldwide income high
F-A-R, foreign affiliate star
Twenty twenty-five alive
Your compliance rhythm thrives

[Bridge]
No more learning curves to climb
You've established paradigm
Baseline set for years ahead
Every T and I you've read
From controlled foreign corps
To the income that it stores
This foundation year will be
Your compliance legacy

[Chorus]
Full year, full scope, full compliance time
Every affiliate in line
W-W-I, that's worldwide income high
F-A-R, foreign affiliate star
Twenty twenty-five alive
Your compliance rhythm thrives

[Outro]
Baseline year is in your hand
Cross-border you understand
Twenty twenty-five complete
Makes your filing rhythm sweet
