White Collar Crime by Grace Jones Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1986

I'm not hungry, you rob a little store throw away the key happy to lock the door
You get slapped on the hand after you've stolen 500 grand
It's outrageous, nobody cares

White collar crime, you had the time
Blue collar crime, you'll do time every time

Stealing from the company, taking all the profits
Sharing with your family, drinking all the benefits
(?), Shocking, it's all so mocking

White collar crime, you don't have the time
Blue collar crime, you'll do time every time

You can get away with it, will they get away with it?
Do they get away with it? Yes, they get away with it

Burn money today, free money tomorrow
(?) goes my mind, causes so much sorrow
(?), It's all the same, It's a money power game
White collar crime, you do the time
Blue collar crime, you do time every time
White collar crime, you don't have the time
Blue collar crime, you do time every time

All the same, money power game
It's all the same, money power game
It's all the same, It's a money power game
All the same, it's a money, a money, power, the power game
It's all the same
