Lyrics
Deadly Serious
He took the car, took the cat, Drank a little of this, some of that
His fingers curled, ?round a baseball bat
He was out lookin? for us, And he was Deadly Serious
Well you could feel his world, just start to slide
Like an icicle, breakin? up inside
We laughed so hard, we started to cry
And he muttered and he cussed, And he was Deadly Serious
Well the beating drums played quick and hard
With beer cans strewn, across his front yard
An otherwise perfect season was marred
He had some things to discuss, And he was Deadly Serious
Ah, pushin? the envelope, Ah, 50,000 words he wrote
On the head of a pin that?s where he left his note
Didn?t get the joke
He combed the streets, he circled back
In his crossfire hairs, a surprise attack
In hot pursuit the case was starting to crack
But we left him in the dust, And he was Deadly Serious
The Jack of Clubs returned, and he settled in
Hallucinating hard, he rubbed his chin
With cool resolve, he managed a grin
But that smile just turned to rust, Cos he was Deadly, Serious
Ah, pushin? the envelope, Ah, 50,000 words he wrote
At the back of my neck he grabbed my overcoat
Didn?t get the joke
