Brown envelopes
It was a popular talking
About wanting easy work done
Through the government agencies
Brown envelopes
Those were the days dealing with agencies
The corruption was the tea-breaks
Out in the open many knew
The ACA then couldn't do much
The officers couldn't punch many holes
The big sharks could escape the net
Because of political connections
It was the small fishes
They could be the news fodder
But many knew too
It was just for show
Now it has evolved
Mark-up contracts or commissions
The layered cake caters to many involved
Hard to detect because it looks legal
