Percy's Pressure (From Smallfoot: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

I thought I'd made it, celebrated, when I got my TV show
But the haters out there hating, got my ratings low, low, low
It's hard to compete with videos of twerking hogs
And water skiing, squirrels and monkeys riding on the backs of dogs (so much pressure)

Have mercy, I'm not the Percy that you've always heard about
That Percy, he was successful, that Percy had a lot of clout
Back then, back when, I was high on that hill
But now, I'm broke here on the bottom with no way to pay my bills

Its getting harder every day to catch a break
So when I see a chance, that is a chance I really need to take
I'm just looking for a way of bouncing back
The rent is due, I'm in a fix and I'm about to crack

(Under pressure)
Brenda, I'm making this up on the spot (under pressure)
Which is impressive, lets be honest
Come on!

Brenda, Brenda, I'm a desperate man!
So help me get back on the top a-rocking again (no pressure)
Brenda, Brenda won't you hear my plea?
The weight of all the world is really weighing on me (so much pressure)

This is no time to quit, I'm on the verge of a hit
And I'm determined to make this a succession
Brenda, tell me you see, all the potential of me
I'll do whatever it takes to make you say yes

Down on my knees, begging you please
Won't you tell me
You understand, lend me a hand
All you've gotta save me, save me, save me, save me
