about

This track is about being pressured by everybody to get engaged! Not from personal experience though ;-)

lyrics

Well the temperature’s rising I can feel the heat,
Got 100 people asking babe, I’m down on my knees.
When the pressure is on there’s nothing left to do,
No time to stand around and hold hands with you.

It’s a stupid situation I have found myself in,
All this perspiration ‘bout a bit of bling!
My baby wants a diamond ring, or we’re through!

You got an obsession with another man,
Well, I’m trying the best I can.
But there’s no way that I can match his moves,
I’m struggling to keep hold of you.

It’s a stupid situation I have found myself in,
All this perspiration ‘bout a bit of bling!
My baby wants a diamond ring, or we’re through

Well I can tell this is the end of me,
Worked my fingers to the bone now I’m begging please.
This other man can’t love you like I can,
He wont ever love you or hold you in his hands.

It’s a stupid situation I have found myself in,
All this perspiration ‘bout a bit of bling!
My baby says she wants a diamond ring,
My baby wants a diamond ring, but we’re through.
