Serious

(álbum: Throw You Down - 1990)

Some girls will try to fool you
Intoxicate your mind
They'll turn you out and use you
Then leave you far behind, yes they will
And when it's all over, baby
It's so sad, the way it makes you feel
Ain't it time you had a woman
Whose love is for real?

I am serious (yeah, baby)
Got what it takes
I got what you need
I'm serious (mm, I'm serious darling)
Satisfaction
Is guaranteed

I'll lay it on the table
There's nothing I won't do, no
I'm ready, willing, able
To prove myself to you, yes I am
You know I'll never leave you lonely
Or play reckless with your heart
Boy, I swear I'm gonna finish
Everything I start

(I'm serious) I'm so serious, baby
No time to waste
No games to play
I'm serious (serious baby, yeah)
Baby, my love
Is here to stay, hey
I'm serious
Got what it takes
I got what you need
I'm serious (so serious)
Satisfaction
Is guaranteed

[Tina Thomas:]
This goes to whomever that you might be
It's strictly on the line, so you better agree
But on the other hand, I won't cut no slack
It's not a problem or fixing, but it's a natural fact
You're probably thinking that I'm like the rest
But you're wrong, 'cause I'm living and I'm giving my best
If you don't understand the way I feel
Boy, you better step off until you're ready to deal
But other than that, you better grab the tense
Because I am the one, who gave a second glance
And you know I don't mean to put you on the spot
But I'm ready to give you everything I got
It's about that time to let you on the line
To get serious, and leave all the games behind
If you thought that you could give me everything I need
Well, my love is yours, and it's guaranteed

And I believe from the bottom of my heart
And from the depths of my soul, darling
That it's time you had the real thing
And I want you, I want you to know, baby

I'm serious (I'm serious)
No time to waste
No games to play
I'm serious (Ooh, I'm serious darling)
Baby, my love
Is here to stay
I'm serious (Serious)
Got what it takes
Got what you need
Serious (So serious)
Satisfaction
Is guaranteed

You better get ready
You better get ready (better get ready)
You better get ready (I'm so...)
You better get ready (serious)
You better get ready (got what you need)
You better get ready
You better get ready (better get ready)
You better get ready (hey)

I'm serious
So serious darling, yeah
I am serious
Serious
I am so serious
Woo...
