The Stick Pin

The Pressure of A Pin ...
Is That Its Outside - It Wants In

The Pressure of A Friend ...
If They're Outside - They Want In

The Pressure of The Wind ...
Its Outside - It Wants In 

The Pressure To Be Thin ...
Outside The Crowd - You Want In

The Pressure Just To Win ...
Show The World - It Burns Within

The Pressure of All Men ...
... Com' On Girls - Don't Pretend!

& Read The Pressure of This Grin
& Let It Out - If Its In
