Pressure
Politician with a suntan
Shortening your lifespan
Looking for a rebrand
At the bottom of the quicksand
Player with a clean sheet
Priced outta the cheap seats
Wandering the backstreets
Straight onto the junk heap
(Ah) what are we afraid of?
Life catching up with us (ah)
Pulling out the carpet
Right out from under us
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
Keep following down to the letter
And they've got us forever, alright
Writer on a wrong turn
Learning how to unlearn
Tell me that I'm handsome
Hundred million dollar ransom
For the "Portrait of a Young Man"
Lying in the wrong hands
The gallery could tempt me
Now the frame is empty
(Ah) what are we afraid of?
Life catching up with us (ah)
Pulling out the carpet
Right out from under us
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
If we keep following down to the letter
They've got us forever, alright
Alright, alright, woo!
They don't want what is best, we can
That's why they're so obsessed with you
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
If we keep following down to the letter
Then they've got us forever, alright
Alright, alright
Shortening your lifespan
Looking for a rebrand
At the bottom of the quicksand
Player with a clean sheet
Priced outta the cheap seats
Wandering the backstreets
Straight onto the junk heap
(Ah) what are we afraid of?
Life catching up with us (ah)
Pulling out the carpet
Right out from under us
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
Keep following down to the letter
And they've got us forever, alright
Writer on a wrong turn
Learning how to unlearn
Tell me that I'm handsome
Hundred million dollar ransom
For the "Portrait of a Young Man"
Lying in the wrong hands
The gallery could tempt me
Now the frame is empty
(Ah) what are we afraid of?
Life catching up with us (ah)
Pulling out the carpet
Right out from under us
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
If we keep following down to the letter
They've got us forever, alright
Alright, alright, woo!
They don't want what is best, we can
That's why they're so obsessed with you
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
Keep putting, keep putting on pressure
They don't want us together tonight
If we keep following down to the letter
Then they've got us forever, alright
Alright, alright
