Serious Lyrics by Michael Knott

Rocket and a Bomb

1994

[Verse 1]
Someone get me a gun, someone get me a shotgun
I wanna end it if I can't have my baby
Someone get me a gun, someone get me a shotgun
I wanna end it if I can't learn to supply

[Verse 2]
Someone drop me from the top of the Empire State
I wanna end it if I can't have my baby
Someone drop me from the top of the Empire State
I wanna end it if I can't learn to survive

[Chorus]
Everything seems so much better when it's gone
Oh, why you take it so serious?
You take it so serious
Oh, why you take it so serious?
You take it so serious

[Cello Solo]

[Verse 3]
Swing me from the limb of a big oak tree
I wanna end it if I can't have my baby
Swing me from the limb of a big oak tree
I wanna end if it I can't learn to supply

[Chorus]
Everything seems so much better when it's gone
Why you take it so serious?
You take it so serious
Yeah, why you take it so serious?
Yeah
You take it, you take it, you take it, you take it, yeah!
Ooh hoo
Yeah
