[Verse 1]
Every morning when you start your day
Business records calling out your name
Miles you drive and receipts you save
Keep them organized, that's how you stay safe
Digital scanning makes it crystal clear
Track your purpose throughout the year
[Chorus]
Throughout the year, keep records near
Miles and receipts, make purpose clear
Log every trip, scan every bill
Track contractors, pay what's due still
Throughout the year, your books sincere
Deductions safe when tax time's here
[Verse 2]
Business meals need more than just the cost
Write the purpose or the claim is lost
Who you met and why you dined that day
Documentation keeps the CRA away
Entertainment too needs business reason
Record it all throughout tax season
[Chorus]
Throughout the year, keep records near
Miles and receipts, make purpose clear
Log every trip, scan every bill
Track contractors, pay what's due still
Throughout the year, your books sincere
Deductions safe when tax time's here
[Bridge]
Mileage logs can be daily or per trip
Either way don't let the habit slip
Subcontractors need their T4A
Track those payments month by month each day
Business travel details matter most
Destination, purpose, cost to host
[Verse 3]
When December thirty-first arrives
All your records help your business thrive
Every receipt and every mile you drove
Every meeting that your income drove
Organization pays you back in gold
Good habits never getting old
[Chorus]
Throughout the year, keep records near
Miles and receipts, make purpose clear
Log every trip, scan every bill
Track contractors, pay what's due still
Throughout the year, your books sincere
Deductions safe when tax time's here
[Outro]
Throughout the year, throughout the year
Keep your business records crystal clear
