Under Pressure (Global Citizen Festival, New York, USA, 2019) Songtext
von Queen + Adam Lambert

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

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

Okay (Adam)

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

People on streets
People on streets

It′s the terror of knowing what this world is about
Watching some good friends screaming, "Let me out"
Pray tomorrow gets me higher, higher
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? Whoa
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?

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 our last dance
This is ourselves

Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure
