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
|
|
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
|
|
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 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
|
|
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
|
|
(Repeat)
