Brass in Pocket Lyrics


GOT BRASS IN POCKET
GOT BOTTLE I'M GONNA USE IT
INTENTION I FEEL INVENTIVE
GONNA MAKE YOU, MAKE YOU, MAKE YOU NOTICE

GOT MOTION RESTRAINED EMOTION
BEEN DRIVING DETROIT LEANING
NO REASON JUST SEEMS SO PLEASING
GONNA MAKE YOU, MAKE YOU,...

    "Brass in pocket" is a British slang term, essentially meaning "I have no money, but I have confidence." A loose interpretion is that brass has a double meaning of brass pennies or brass knuckles. This song is about using all the other things, like confidence and imagination, to win her guy.
