Nell Benjamin - Serious lyrics

[Warner] 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 [Elle] I never thought that I-- [Warner] Oh, honey, I'm not finished [Elle] Oh, sorry [Warner] Since I was two or three My life was planned out neat I'd get my law degree And then win my Senate seat A big white house back east All of the amenities Three kids-- [Both] At least, just like The Kennedy's [Warner] Here's where our lives begin But just where do you fit in? [Elle] Fit me in! [Warner] I'll break it down now, baby So baby give me your hand [Elle] Here's my hand Here's my hand [Warner] I've got some dreams to make true [Elle] We both have dreams to make true [Warner] I know you'll understand [Elle] Oh yes, I'll understand [Both] It's time to get serious Time to get serious with [Warner] Serious Gotta wake up and take our journey Serious I'm tellin' you as a future attorney You want the moon and sky Then take it, don't be shy [Elle] Okay! [Warner] Baby that's why you and I [Elle] You and I [Warner] Should break up [Elle] Yes baby I'll give you my hand--wait WHAT!? You're breaking up with me? I thought you were proposing [Warner] Elle, if I'm gonna be a Senator when I'm thirty I'm gonna need somebody Serious Less of a Marilyn, more of a Jackie Serious Somebody cla**y and not too tacky [Elle] What!? [Warner] Okay that came out wrong Baby let's both be strong I mean we've known all along-- [Elle] Just shut up What does that mean, I'm not a Jackie? I'm not serious? But I am seriously in love with you [Warner] 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... Cheque please
