Serious business
You aint goin nowhere
Gonna sit by this pool until you fall in
Didnt 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 theyre 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 cant dance and I cant relax
Outside is too threatening now
Ive come this far and I cant 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 Im 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
