Listening to Michael Monroe’s “One Man Gang” and he keeps saying he’s “running on that PMA”. Hopefully I’m not the only Michael Monroe fan here, because I have no idea what he’s talking about.
The internet is full of things that PMA could stand for, but I’m curious if anyone knows specifically what he’s referring to in this song?
Positive Mental Attitude.
Not familiar with the author but could it be “positive mental attitude”?

It could be anything. I guess that makes as much sense as anything else, but I’ve never come across that acronym before.
It fits the song I suppose though…is this a common acronym that I’ve somehow gone 50 years without coming across?
I’ve never heard the song, but I looked at the lyrics and Positive Mental Attitude is what makes sense to me, too. He’s talking all about how other people are too negative but won’t get him down.
He also says it, here.
Thanks. I missed that somehow when I went looking for the answer.
I think this is the quickest the Dope has ever gotten me an answer, thanks!
De nada!
I’ve heard it in the context of workout videos and advice. Kinda unhelpful, especially when reduced to an abbreviation.
