Sixty-nine
and doin' time
for
computer crime.

There's such a fine line
we used to walk
in the sunshine --
of the white collar world

You don't pack your lunch,
you expense it with a client.

You don't go to the supermarket,
you trade on the stock market

Doin' 20 years for rigging the computers
of the New York Stock Exchange
to deposit profits
to a shell account
in the Caymans -- in a bogus name.

Stayed away from the dread white line
but I damned sure crossed that fine line.
