Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Digital Services Tax Act knocks at your door
Twenty twenty four brought changes we can't ignore
Seven point five percent on qualifying revenue streams
Tech giants face the music, CRA collects their dreams
Platform operators must disclose every transaction
Gig workers scrambling for proper documentation

[Chorus]
DST - Digital Services Tax
Platform reports - no looking back
Crypto gains - declare each trade
NFT profits - taxes paid
Staking rewards flow like income streams
Digital wealth ain't what it seems

[Verse 2]
Uber drivers, Airbnb hosts beware
T4A slips coming through the digital air
Platforms tracking every ride and rental fee
Quarterly statements flow to CRA's decree
Twenty thousand threshold triggers their attention
Missing forms lead to audit intervention

[Chorus]
DST - Digital Services Tax
Platform reports - no looking back
Crypto gains - declare each trade
NFT profits - taxes paid
Staking rewards flow like income streams
Digital wealth ain't what it seems

[Bridge]
Bitcoin bought low then sold at market high
Capital gains calculation, CRA's watchful eye
DeFi liquidity pools generate taxable yield
Validator nodes harvest blocks across the field
Disposition triggers recognition every time
Converting crypto pairs creates a taxable rhyme

[Verse 3]
NFT flipping generates business income rates
Casual collectors face capital gains debates
Proof of stake rewards hit your return as earned
Mining operations see business profits churned
CRA's position shifts like blockchain consensus
Digital asset rules demand our full defensiveness

[Outro]
Track your basis, save those wallet addresses
Digital breadcrumbs help with audit stresses
Evolution marches through the tax code maze
Navigate carefully through these digital days
