Serious
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
Looking 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:
(spoken) Uh, honey, I'm not finished.
ELLE:
(spoken) Oh, sorry!
WARNER:
Since I was two or three
ELLE:
Mmmm
WARNER:
My life was planned out neat
ELLE:
Mmmm
WARNER:
I'd get my law degree
ELLE:
Yeahh
WARNER:
And then win my senate seat
ELLE:
Mmmm
WARNER:
A big white house back east
ELLE:
Oh, ohh
WARNER:
All of the amenities
ELLE:
Yeahh
WARNER:
Three kids
BOTH:
At least, just like the Kennedys
WARNER:
Here's where our lives begin
ELLE:
Our lives begin
WARNER:
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:
Oo, whoaa, 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'll know that you'll understand
ELLE:
Oh yes, I understand
BOTH:
It's time to get serious
Time to get serious
WARNER:
With you
Serious
ELLE:
Serious
WARNER:
Gotta wake up and take our journey
Serious
ELLE:
Serious
WARNER:
I'm telling you as a future attorney
ELLE:
Oh, oh
WARNER:
You want the moon and sky
Then take it, don't be shy
ELLE:
Heyy
WARNER:
Baby, that's why you and I
ELLE:
I, you and I
WARNER:
Should break up!
ELLE:
Hey, baby, I'll give you my hand, we-
(Spoken) WHAT?? You're breaking up with me?
I thought you were proposing!
WARNER:
(Spoken) 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 classy and not too tacky
ELLE:
(Spoken) What?!
WARNER:
Okay, that came out wrong
ELLE:
(Sobs)
WARNER:
Baby, let's both be strong
ELLE:
(Sobs)
WARNER:
I mean, we've known all along
ELLE:
(Spoken) 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
(Spoken) Check, please.
