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.
Eh!
I've got a pocket full of pretty green,
I've got, I'm gonna put it in the fruit machine,
I'm gonna put it in the juke-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!
