LYRIC: “Send the robber barons straight to hell — the greedy thieves who came around and ate the flesh of everything they found. Whose crimes have gone unpunished now, who walk the streets as free men now.”YEAR/ALBUM: 2012, “Wrecking Ball”

BACKSTORY: Springsteen revisits the theme of a dying hometown, this time with more aggressiveness than lament, keying in on the financial crisis of 2007-2008. It functioned as a protest song and a rallying cry against greed and its carriers. The same album featured the song “Wrecking Ball,” a defiant challenge to people who would tear down beloved parts of northern New Jersey in the name of “progress.”LYRIC: “Billy sat in front of his TV as the South fell and the communists rolled into Saigon. He and his friends watched as the refugees came, settled on the same streets and worked the coast they’d grew up on.”YEAR/ALBUM: 1995, “The Ghost of Tom Joad”

BACKSTORY: An almost biblical parable about pain and old hatreds. A veteran in Galveston Bay, who’d fought in Vietnam, watches as an immigrant Vietnamese shrimper protects himself and sets out to kill him one night — but it ends with unexpected results and quiet hope.LYRIC: “So I bought a .44 Magnum, it was solid steel cast. And in the blessed name of Elvis, well, I just let it blast ‘til my TV lay in pieces there at my feet. And they busted me for disturbin’ the almighty peace.”

YEAR/ALBUM: 1992, “Human Touch”

BACKSTORY: An expression of sardonic rage at the emptiness and hopelessness that the unremitting feed of cable TV had brought to the world. This is less political and more social, though it reflected some of the disillusionment of the age about the brain rot of popular culture. It came months before Michael Douglas’ anger-management-failure movie “Falling Down” depicted an enraged man losing it and tearing a swath through Los Angeles because of the stresses of modern culture.A man looks for plastic items at Karakoy ferry terminal in Istanbul, Turkey, Sunday, Feb. 9, 2025.

After being processed, it will be used in industrial applications or reused as carton and paper.

Late at night, thieves sometimes stop them on the streets, asking for money.“If we refuse, they threaten us,” Dogan says. “We work more than 12 hours, sometimes 17 (a day). If we take a day off, we go hungry.”
