Street's ______ a jungle
so call the ______
Following the herd
down to Greece
on ______ ...
Love in the 90's

on sunny ______
Take your chances
looking for

[Chorus]
______who are ______
who like ______ to be ______
who do ______ like they're ______
who do ______ like they're ______
Always should be someone you really love

Avoiding all ______
because there's none _______
Like battery thinkers
______ your thoughts 
on 1 2 3 4 5 ______
Nothing is wasted
only reproduced
Get nasty blisters
Du bist sehr schön
But we haven't been _______

knowing x2, cracking pushing  chipping caring  watching coming  pressing screaming, building

...
Pressure, _______ down on me,
_______ down on you no man ask for 
Under pressure, 
that burns a _______ down, 
splits a family in two, 
puts people on streets 
...
It's the terror of _______, 
what this world is about, 
_______ some good friends 
_______ let me out! 
Pray tomorrow takes me higher... 
Pressure on people, 
people on streets 
... 
_______ 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
_______
what this world is about 
_______ some good friends 
_______ let me out! 
Pray tomorrow takes me higher 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
_______ up with love 
but it's so slashed and torn 
Why why why? 
Love love love love...

Insanity laughs under pressure we're
_______ 

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? 
‘Cause love's such an old fashioned word 
and love dares you to care 
for people on the edge of the night 
and love dares you to change our way 
of
_______about ourselves 
this is our last chance 
this is our last dance 
this is ourselves under pressure 
under pressure
pressure
