Pressure pushing down on me,

pressing down on you no man ask for

Under pressure that burns a building down

Splits a family in two, puts people on streets

It's the terror of knowing what this world is about

Watching some good friends screaming "let me out"

Pray tomorrow, gets me higher,

pressure on people, people on streets.

It's the terror of knowing what this world is about

Watching some good friends screaming "let me out"

Pray tomorrow, gets me higher,

pressure on people, people on streets.

Turned away from it all like a blind man

Sat on a fence but it don't work.

Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn

Why? why? why?

Love, insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking

Can't we give ourselves one more chance

Why can't we give love that one more chance?

Why can't we 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...

Queen, David Bowie.
