Under Pressure
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Ivy:
Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you, no man ask for
Karen:
Under pressure that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
Jimmy:
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming
Jimmy and Karen:
"Let me out!"
Ana:
Pray tomorrow takes me higher
Pressure on people - people on streets
Tom:
Chippin' around, kick my brains 'round the floor
These are the days - it never rains but it pours
Julia:
People on streets - people on streets
Karen:
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming
Karen and Jimmy:
"Let me out!"
Ivy:
Pray tomorrow gets me higher and higher and higher
Karen:
Pressure on people - people on streets
Eileen:
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Derek:
Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn
Jimmy:
Why, why, why?
Sam:
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
Ivy:
Can't we give ourselves one more chance?
Jimmy:
Why can't we give love that one more chance?
Karen:
Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love
Karen and Jimmy:
Give love, give love, give love, give love?
All:
'Cause love's such an old-fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
