Lyrics

Go, girl Pressure, pushing down on me Pressing down on you, no man ask for Under pressure that burns a building down It splits a family in two, puts people on streets That's okay It's the terror of knowing what this world is about Watching the good friends screaming, "Let me out!" Pray tomorrow takes me higher Pressure on people, people on streets Okay Chippin' around, kick my brains across the floor These are the days, it never rains, but it pours People on streets People on streets It's the terror of knowing what this world is about Watching the good friends screaming, "Let me out!" Pray tomorrow takes me higher Pressure on people, people on streets Turn away from it all like a blind man Sat on the fence, but it don't work Keep comin' up with love, but it's so slashed and torn Why, why? Insanity laughs, under pressure we're cracking Why can't we give love one more chance? Why can't we give love now one more chance? Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love Give love, give love, give love '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 Under pressure Pressure Gail Ann Dorsey Gail Ann, lovely Dorsey
