Under Pressure Songtext
von Brian May

Mmm-num-ba
Dum-ba-bum-ba-be
Doo-buh-dum-ba-beh-beh

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

Um-ba-ba-be
Um-ba-ba-be
De-day-da
Ee-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 gets me higher
Pressure on people, people on streets

Day-day-de-mm-hm
Da-da-da-ba-ba
Okay


Chipping around, kick my brains around the floor
These are the days it never rains but it pours

Ee-do-ba-be
Ee-da-ba-ba-ba
Um-bo-bo
Be-lap

People on streets
Ee-da-de-da-de
People on streets
Ee-da-de-da-de-da-de-da

It′s the terror of knowing what this world is about
Watching some good friends screaming, "Let me out!"
Pray tomorrow gets me higher, high
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, why, why, why?
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love
Insanity laughs, under pressure, we′re breaking


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, give love?

Because 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
