Pressure Cooker Man


--Verse 1

I was raised on the south side
Of the dead end railroad tracks
Off hard luck avenue
With a sun-burned broken back

But ever since I got free
I've been runnin' on full blast
And gettin' my share of the pie
I ain't never lookin' back

--Chorus

The pressure cooker man
Is what I am
The cookie jar, is where I've always got my hand
So if you see me comin' get out of the way
And try to understand
That I run on full steam
I'm the pressure cooker man

-- Verse 2

You might not respect me
You might not like where I stand
But you'll recognize me strikin' deals 
All through this land

One dollar here, one favor there, and it's another grand
The grass don't grow between my feet
'Cause I'm always in demand

--(Repeat Chorus)

--Verse 3 

The more I rock, the more things roll
I live by the clock and pay the toll
To get where I've been headin' to
From point A to B might lead to you

So shake my hand and make me a deal
Or step back and watch my tires squeal
I don't have time for long appeals
And I always keep things real

--(Repeat Chorus)

Baby I run on full steam
I'm the pressure cooker man
