I put pressure on you ma
to dance with me
I put pressure on you babe
just to leave me be

I put pressure on you child
to stay a while
I'd put pressure on anybody
who'd prefer to smile

Its good enough for most of you
but not for me
I'd sell my soul for a remedy
to feel like thee

I put pressure
on you boy
high and wide
I put pressure on loved ones
to leave my side

I put pressure on you babe
to meet my dream
The life of leisure's just
not what it seems
