Story Behind The Song

Many artists try to make a political statement when they don’t really know anymore than the average person. Let’s just have some fun instead.

Song Description

Modern Doo-wop with heavy guitar sound. Huey Lewis or Manhattan Transfer.

Lyrics

Don’t take me serious
Cause it ain’t my state of mind
So don’t think that I’m serious
When I feed you a line
Thoughts just come every now and then
When I’m sittin’ around with a guitar and pen
I’m not serious

(Ya see I…)
I don’t know much about politics
Don’t know much about crime
Don’t know much about the rich or the poor
I’m just writin’ down words and makin’ them rhyme
Not serious
I’m just not the serious kind

All over the radio
They keep singin’ about their strife
Is it just me or does anybody else
Ever live a normal life?
Activists singin’ politics
Try to tell us what to do
But the don’t know any more than me
Or any more that you

So don’t take them serious
They’re messin’ with your mind
Just a little too serious
I don’t wanna hear them whine
I sure so like the music they play
But I don’t take stock in the words they say
So serious

(Now listen…)
Some of them fell on black days
And some of them built a wall
Some of them blame it on everyone else
So Jeremy spoke and he killed them all
And that’s serious
But I’m here having a ball

All over the radio
They keep singin’ about their strife
Is it just me or does anybody else
Ever live a normal life?
Activists singin’ politics
Try to tell us what to do
But the don’t know any more than me
Or any more that you

So don’t take them serious
No need to be serious
Thoughts just come every now and then
When I’m sittin’ around with a guitar and pen
Not serious
Ya just can’t be serious
Ya don’t gotta be serious
So don’t take me serious
