John Mellencamp - Serious Business lyrics

Serious business<br><br>You ain't goin' nowhere<br>Gonna sit by this pool until you fall in<br>Didn't know what you were getting into<br>When you walked into this room<br>Did you, kid? <br><br>We got some girls over here<br>We got some boys over there<br>And they're here just for your fun<br><br>So have some dinner, baby<br>Play some records<br>Just remember one thing, son<br><br>Chorus<br>This is serious business<br>Sex and violence and rock and roll<br>This is serious business<br>Sex and violence and rock and roll<br><br>You know my head is sweating<br>I can't dance and I can't relax<br>Outside is too threatening now<br>I've come this far and I can't go back<br><br>Call up some old friends<br>Call up some strangers<br>Get me used to that french telephone<br>Donna donna, educate me<br>But tell those girls that I'm not alone<br><br>Chorus<br><br>Bridge<br>Take my life and take my soul<br>Put me on the cross for all to see<br>Put my name around my neck<br>Let those people throw stones at me<br><br>This is serious business<br>Sex and violence and rock and roll
