|
I've got a pocket full of pretty green - |
|
I'm gonna put it in the fruit machine - |
|
I'm gonna put it in the juke box - |
|
It's gonna play all the records in the hit parade - |
|
This is the pretty green - this is society |
|
You can't do nothing - unless it's in the pocket |
|
- oh no - |
|
I've got a pocket full of pretty green |
|
I'm gonna give it to the man behind the counter |
|
He's gonna give me food and water - |
|
I'm gonna eat that and look for more - |
|
And they didn't teach me that in school - |
|
It's something that i learnt on my own - |
|
That power is measured by the pound or the fist - |
|
It's as clear as this oh - |
|
I've got a pocket full of pretty green! |
