SONG: WHITE COLLAR CRIME
“Lost my conscience and I feel fine,
Perfect prescription for white collar crime”
“Built a franchise of greed and fraud,
I’m selling Bibles autographed by God”
An overview of the freedom and ease of robbing and ripping off people at extraordinary levels without great risk of conviction much less jail time.
The banking crisis and bail out of 2008, maybe one guy went to prison. A kid steals ten dollars worth of stuff from a 7-11 or sells grass, gets caught goes to jail.
Produced and arranged by Erik Nielsen who played the drums. Fantastic performances by David Grissom (guitar) and Dana Russell (bass).
LYRICS
Lost my conscience I feel find
Perfect prescription for white collar crime
Wheel of fortune the price is right
Beat the clock every day and night
Life is plastic limit to the sky
Buy every toy before I die
Shake my hand now you owe me
For about a grand your lunch is free
Hedge my bets evade some tax
Stuffing my money between the cracks
Built a franchise of greed and fraud
I’m selling bibles autographed by God
