The Pressure Boys

Sound clip available

Here come the pressure boys
Boys of aggressive joys
Fellows with lantern jaws
Shoulders like foundry doors

Here come the pressure boys
Eager to shake your poise
Hands like a panther's paws
Eyes like reactor cores

     Soldiers of dreadful night
     Kick, tickle, scratch and bite
     Go like a bird in flight
     Stay like potato blight

Here come the pressure boys
Smashing up all your toys
Laughing at parking laws
Sticking up liquor stores

     Troops of the ultra-right
     Nightmare and quaking fright
     Touchy like gelignite
     Uptight and outasight

Here come the pressure boys
Making their fearful noise
Singing like power saws
Smiling like lobster claws

Here come the pressure boys
Here come the pressure boys
Here come the pressure boys
Here come the pressure boys
