David Bowie - Under Pressure Lyrics
Umm boom bah day
Umm boom bah bay
Umm bah boom bah bay day
Pressure, pushing down on me
Pressing down on you, no man asks for
Under Pressure
That burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
Umm bah bah bay
Umm bah bah bay
Ea day da
Ea day da
That's okay!
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out
Pray tomorrow takes me higher
Pressure on people
People on streets
Day day day
Umm... Buh da bah bah bah
O-kay!
Chippin' around
Kick my brains 'round the floor
These are the days
It never rains but it pours
Ea doe bay dup
Ea da doe bah bup
Ea doe bup
Bay lup
People on streets
Ea da dea da day
People on streets
Ea da dea da dea da dea da...
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out
Pray tomorrow takes me higher-higher-high...
Pressure on people
People on streets
Turned away from it all
Like a blind man
Sat on the fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love
But it's so slashed and torn
(Why, why, whhhhhyyyy??)
Love love love 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 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 ourselves under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure
