On Sunday night's episode of John Oliver's HBO talk show, he brought out Bolton to croon a new song written about tax season. It starts off innocently enough, with delicate piano and Bolton's croon of "I could hardly believe it/ When I heard the news today," seemingly straight out of some sort of Lee Greenwood-esque patriotic anthem.
