Yeah, I Know It's Cheating...

...to rely on posts that point out other people's stuff. But fuck it. Science must be dropped--does it matter who does the dropping?

I submit it does not. Where would we be if Galileo didn't drop the orange?

Permit me to follow up on my post about Queen, specifically with regard to the song "Under Pressure". (I know you didn't listen to the song, let alone look at the lyrics. That's ok, it's what I'm here for.)

So here are the lyrics (minus Freddie Mercury's inimitable freestyle sounds--some things should not be presented in written form, trust me):

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

Chippin' around - kick my brains around 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 high high
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 - why ?
Love love love love love
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
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 give love
'Cause 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

And here is the song:
