PRETTY GREEN (Paul Weller)

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!

MONDAY (Paul Weller)

Rainclouds came and stole my thunder -

Left me barren like a desert

But a sunshine girl like you

It's worth going through -

I will never be embarrassed about love again.

Tortured winds that blew me over -

When I start to think that I'm something special

They tell me that I'm not -

And they're right and I'm glad and I'm not -

I will never be embarrassed about that again.

Oh baby I'm dreaming of Monday,

Oh baby will I see you again,

Oh baby I'm dreaming of Monday.

MAN IN THE CORNER SHOP (Paul Weller)

Puts up the closed sign does the man in the corner shop

Serves his last and says goodbye to him

He knows it is a hard life

But its nice to be your own boss really

Walks off home does the last customer

He is jealous of the man in the corner shop

He is sick of working at the factory

Says it must be nice to be your own boss (really)

Sells cigars to the boss from the factory

He is jealous is the man in the corner shop

He is sick of struggling so hard-aca
