Pressure
[Verse 1]
A politician with a suntan
Shortening your lifespan
Looking for a rebrand
At the bottom of the quicksand
Player with a clean sheet
Priced outta the cheap seats
Wandering the back streets
Straight onto the junk heap
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah-ah) What are we afraid of?
Life catching up with us
(Ah-ah) Pulling out the carpet
Right out from under us
[Chorus]
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
Keep following down to the letter
And they’ve got us forever alright
[Verse 2]
Writer on a wrong turn
Learning how to unlearn
Tell me that I'm handsome
Hundred million dollar ransom
For the "Portrait of a Young Man"
Lying in the wrong hands
Thе gallery could tempt me
Now thе frame is empty
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah-ah) What are we afraid of?
Life catching up with us
(Ah-ah) Pulling out the carpet
Right out from under us
[Chorus]
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
If we keep following down to the letter
They’ve got us forever, alright
Alright, alright, hoo!
[Bridge]
They don't want what is best for you
That's why they're so obsessed with you
[Interlude]
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
[Chorus]
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
If we keep following down to the letter
Then they've got us forever, alright
Alright, alright
