about

White Collared Criminals is an indictment of the financiers who wreak havoc on the lives of others and the politicians who enable them, a call to reexamine the trope of crash vs riots, the first contrapunctus of the record

lyrics

PART I:

looting. vandalizing. thieving. robbing

oh binney, i mean it was a most marvellous time, ya

we haven’t been heard yet. we haven’t been heard yet. we haven’t been heard


PART II:

this is criminality pure and simple

so at the end of the day you’re seeing a manifestation of whats been deprived from them

protecting the taxpayer’s purse. protecting the public services

so who wants austerity? well, bankers, rich people, the people who run the world

austerity is about making the rest of us pay for bailing out the bankers

e la nazione in assoluto piú corrotto nel mondo sul piano del riciclaggio di dinaro sporco

this is totally, totally unacceptable

and it’s no good thinking someone else will pay - that someone else is you

see the protests as the expression of a widespread and deep exasperation with the financial establishment

that’s all you’re seeing, is an outburst of emotion because then they see no future in themselves

PART III:

you will feel the full force of the law

they went away rich

500 million pounds

greed is right

hold up, i’m from the streets, you tell me where i should go

i wouldn’t have said we were very attractive people really

well there’s gonna be a riot. there’ll be a riot. there’ll be a riot
