Queen & David Bowie
Under Pressure (Live in Budapest, 27th July 1986)
[Intro]
(Audience cheering)
This is "Under Pressure"
Mmm da de
Dum bum ba be
Duh doom duh duh do ba
[Verse 1]
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
[Bridge]
Um ba ba be
Um ba ba be
Ee day da
De day da
That's okay!
[Chorus]
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 day
De de de de day
Okay
[Verse 2]
Chippin' around, kick my brains around the floor
These are the days, it never rains but it pours
Dee do da de
Dee da do da do
Dee do do
De dah
People on streets
Dee da dee da de
People on streets
Dee da dee dah dee dah dee dah
[Chorus]
It's the terror of knowing what this world is about
Watching some good friends screaming, "Let me out"
Pray tomorrow... high, higher, ohh
[Bridge: Freddie Mercury & (Roger Taylor)]
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don’t work
Keep comin' up with love but it's so slashed and torn
(Why?)
Why?
Ohh!
Insanity laughs, under pressure we're breaking
[Verse 3]
Why 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?
[Outro]
'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
Pressure
