Red Tape
Red tape is an idiom referring to regulations or conformity to formal rules or standards which are claimed to be excessive, rigid or redundant, or to bureaucracy claimed to hinder or prevent action or decision-making. It is usually applied to governments, corporations, and other large organizations. Things often described as "red tape" include filling out paperwork, obtaining licenses, having multiple people or committees approve a decision and various low-level rules that make conducting one's affairs slower, more difficult, or both. Red tape has been found to hamper organizational performance and employee wellbeing by meta-analytic studies in 2020. A related concept, administrative burden, refers to the costs citizens may experience in their interaction with government even if bureaucratic regulations or procedures serve legitimate purposes.

Red Tape (song)
"Red Tape" is a song by French singer Amanda Lear released in 1981 by Ariola Records as the single from her album ''Incognito''. Song information "Red Tape" was composed and produced by Anthony Monn, Lear's long-time collaborator, and is a pop song with rock influences. In the song's lyrics, Amanda Lear criticises the so-called " red tape", complaining about its inquisitiveness and the lack of privacy it imposes. She sings: "I want to keep my privacy, Big Brother is watching me". On its parent album, where every song stands for a " deadly sin", "Red Tape" represents bureaucracy. The song was released as the single only in France, with a French-language version of "New York" on side B, which was not available on the album. The single did not chart. In the 2017 book ''Europe's Stars of '80s Dance Pop'', the song is mentioned as one of Lear's "noteworthy tracks" from the 80s.

Louis "Red" Deutsch
The Tube Bar prank calls are a series of prank calls made in the mid-1970s to the Tube Bar in Jersey City, in which Jim Davidson and John Elmo would ask "Red," the proprietor of the bar, if they could speak to various non-existent customers. The gag names given by the pranksters were puns and homophones for often offensive phrases. Recordings of the calls were circulated widely on duplicated cassette tapes and may have been the inspiration for a long running gag in ''The Simpsons''. History In the mid-1970s, two young men—John Elmo and Jim Davidson; later known collectively as ''Bum Bar Bastards'', or ''The BBB''—began calling the Tube Bar located at Journal Square in Jersey City, New Jersey. The bar was owned by heavyweight boxer Louis "Red" Deutsch, and most of the time Deutsch himself answered the calls. During a call, the pranksters would ask Deutsch to call out fictitious, pun-like/homophones names such as "Pepe Roni" (''pepperoni''), "Hal Ja-Like-a-Kick" (''how'd you like ...
