Check Your Pressure
by Pepper Jane
Too many flowers, too many bees
Too many heads, not enough knees
I tried to impress you but I am
Too much pressure, not enough release
Too many bees, not enough honey
Too many jokes, none of them funny
(mistakenly sung as "not enough funny")
Too many laughs, none of them with me
I tried to amuse you but I am
Too much compression, no coagulation
Too many dice, not enough rolling
Too much ice, not enough cajoling
I tried to teach you, guide you, but I was
Too much pressure, too much controlling
Bridge
Let's go strolling, to a fencepost
With a meter for a maid
And check your pressure, make a measure
It's your very own first aid
For
Too many flowers, too many bees
Too many heads, not enough knees
I tried to impress upon you that I am
Too much pressure; not enough

Macaque Attack - "Check Your Pressure"
Verse 1
Check your pressure,
You're looking beetroot and your head might pop,
Pop right off,
Don't let it getcha,
Take a breath before you keel and drop,
That's your lot
Bridge
If there's something that you're mad about,
Don't let your blood boil til it takes you out
Verse 2
Check your pressure,
Your body's shaking and I'm not sure why,
Twitching eye,
Your fists are clenching,
Count to ten before your senses fry,
Wave goodbye
Bridge
If there's something that you're mad about,
Don't let your blood boil til it takes you out
Chorus
Calm, calm it down,
Chill your bones, don't have a cow,
Calm, calm it down,
You'll make it through all this somehow
And if you're struggling,
I will struggle by your side,
And if you're angry,
I will be here
