Serious Business Lyrics by John Mellencamp

Serious Business Lyrics

    serious business

    You ain't goin' nowhere
    Gonna sit by this pool until you fall in
    Didn't know what you were getting into
    When you walked into this room
    Did you, kid?

    We got some girls over here
    We got some boys over there
    And they're here just for your fun

    So have some dinner, baby
    Play some records
    Just remember one thing, son

    Chorus
    This is serious business
    Sex and violence and rock and roll
    This is serious business
    Sex and violence and rock and roll

    You know my head is sweating
    I can't dance and i can't relax
    Outside is too threatening now
    I've come this far and i can't go back

    Call up some old friends
    Call up some strangers
    Get me used to that french telephone
    Donna donna, educate me
    But tell those girls that i'm not alone

    Chorus

    Bridge
    Take my life and take my soul
    Put me on the cross for all to see
    Put my name around my neck
    Let those people throw stones at me

    This is serious business
    Sex and violence and rock and roll
