Oh, woman you make me feel, like I'm on fire Oh, woman you make it real, it's the only way for me So, if we sometimes fight, doesn't mean we got problems Ain't always black and white, who cares anyway? Ooh - doesn't have to be serious Ooh - doesn't have to be serious (serious) Doesn't have to be serious Doesn't have to be serious Oh baby you get so wild, Mmm too much understanding Oh baby you're such a child, put up with all the tears and cryin' Don't worry if you're confused, we all tend to be sometimes The whole world is getting used, its just the way it is... Maybe right, Oh, but maybe wrong Doesn't have to be serious, being hard isn't being strong Doesn't have to be serious, fighting for love, fighting for pain Ooh doesn't have to be serious, and if you win, oh what do you gain? Doesn't have to be serious.. Ooh, doesn't have to be serious maybe right, Ooh, but maybe wrong Ohh doesn't have to be serious, fighting for love, fighting for pain Ooh doesn't have to be serious, and if you win, oh what do you gain? Ooh doesn't have to be serious, maybe right, oh but maybe wrong Doesn't have to be serious, being hard, isn't being strong Doesn't have to be serious, fighting for love, fighting for pain Ohh doesn't have to be serious and if you win...
