Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I thought I'd made it, celebrated
When I got my TV show
But the haters out there hating
Got my ratings low, low, low
It's to compete with videos of
Twerking hogs and water skiing squirrels
And monkeys riding on the backs of dogs
[Verse 2]
(So much pressure)
Have mercy
I'm not the Percy that you've always heard about
That Percy, he was successful
That Percy had a lot of clout
Back then, back when
I was high on that hill
But now, I'm broke here on the bottom
With no way to pay my bills
[Verse 3]
It's getting harder every day to catch a break
So when I see a chance
Then it's the chance I really need to take
I'm just looking for a way of bouncing back
The rent is due, I'm in a fix
And I'm about to crack
[Verse 4]
(Under pressure)
Brenda, I'm making this up on the spot
(Under pressure)
Which is impressive, let's be honest
Come on
[Verse 5]
Brenda, Brenda, I'm a desperate man
So, help me get back on the top
And rockin' again
(No pressure)
[Verse 6]
Brenda, Brenda, won't you hear my plea?
The weight of all the world is really weighing on me
(So much pressure)
This is no time to quit
I'm on the verge of a hit
And I'm determined
To make this a success, yeah
Brenda, tell me you see
All the potential in me
I'll do whatever it takes
To make you say "Yes"
[Verse 7]
Down on my knees
Beggin' you, please
Won't you tell me you understand?
Lend me a hand
Oh, you gotta
Save me, save me, save me, save me
