Serious

We both know why we're here, I see it in your eyes

I guess it calms my fear to know it's not a surprise

I thought one look at you, lookin' like a dream come true

Would leave me speechless like you always do

But now we're wide awake

We've got some plans to make

Let's take some action, baby

So, baby, give me your hand

I've got some dreams to make true

I've got the future all planned

It's time to get serious, time to get serious with you

I never thought that I

(Oh, honey, I'm not finished) oh, sorry

Since I was two or three (mm-hm), my life was planned out neat (mm-hm)

I'd get my law degree (yeah), and then win my Senate seat (mm)

A big, white house back East (uh-huh), all of the amenities (yeah)

Three kids at least, just like the Kennedys

Here's where our lives begin (our lives begin)

But just where do you fit in? (Fit me in!)

I'll break it down now, baby

So, baby, give me your hand (oh-oh, here's my hand, here's my hand)

I've got some dreams to make true (we both have dreams to make true)

I'll know that you'll understand (oh yes, I understand)

It's time to get serious, time to get serious with-

Serious (serious), gotta wake up and take our journey

Serious (serious), I'm telling you, as a future attorney

You want the moon and sky (ah), then take it, don't be shy (okay)

Baby, that's why you and I (you and I)

Should break up

Yes, baby, I'll give you my hand, we- what?!

You're breaking up with me? I thought you were proposing

Elle, if I'm gonna be a senator when I'm 30, I'm gonna need somebody

Serious, less of a Marilyn, more of a Jackie

Serious, somebody classy and not too tacky (what?!)

Okay, that came out wrong, baby, let's both be strong

I mean, we've known all along

Just shut up, what does that mean, I'm not a Jackie?

I'm not serious? But I am seriously in love with you

Baby, my future's all planned

I've got some dreams to make true

I thought that you'd understand

It's time to get serious, time to get serious

Check, please
