Pressure, pressure Pressure
No I never can understand it The way the system plan There’s no hope, no chance No loophole, no escape for a suffering man Cause every time I leave my head above water And try to save myself from drown There’s an overnight scheme all worked out Designed to keep ah me down
Still I’m (putting up a resistance) I’m ah gonna work it out You know I’m (putting up a resistance) I’ve got to work it out
No window, no window I want to stay home tonight I long to spend some time with the family But staying home won’t make it right Sometimes the pressure make me feel like When every sign says no way out Breaking my back to make an overtime dollar That just goes from man to mouth
Still I’m (putting up a resistance) I’m gonna work it out You know I’m (putting up a resistance) I’ve got to work it out Lord I’m (putting up a resistance) I’m ah gonna work it out You know I’m (putting up a resistance) I’m gonna work it out, Lord!
Got to fight it Got to fight it
No I never can understand it The way the system goes I don’t know how they do it There’s only one way things flow I don’t know how they do it Cause every time I leave my head above water And try to save myself from drowning There’s an overnight scheme all worked out Designed to keep ah me down
Still I’m (putting up a resistance) I’ve got to work it out You know I’m (putting up a resistance) I’m gonna work it out now Putting up a resistance I’m gonna work it out
No window, no window I want to stay home tonight I’d like to spend some time with the family But staying home won’t make it right Sometimes the pressure make me feel like When every sign says no way out Breaking my back to make an overnight dollar That just goes from man to mouth |
