Lyrics

We both know why we're here
I see it in your eyes
I guess, it calms my fear
To know it's not a surprise

I thought one look at you
Looking like a dream come true
Would leave me speechless
Like you always do

But now, we're wide awake
We've got some plans to make
Let's take some action, baby

So, baby, give me your hand
I've got some dreams to make true
I've got the future all planned
It's time to get serious
Time to get serious with you

I never thought that I
Oh honey, I'm not finished
Oh, sorry

Since, I was two or three
My life was planned out neat
I'd get my law degree, yeah
And then win my senate seat

A big white house back east, oh, oh
All of the amenities, yeah
Three kids, at least
Just like the Kennedy's

Here's where our lives begin
Our lives begin
Just where do you fit in?
Fit me in

I'll break it down now, baby
So, baby, give me your hand
Oh, here's my hand, here's my hand

I've got some dreams to make true

We both have dreams to make true
I'll know that you'll understand
Oh yes, I understand
It's time to get serious, time to get serious with you

Serious, serious
Gotta wake up and take our journey
Serious, serious
I'm telling you as a future attorney, oh, oh

You want the moon and sky
Then take it, don't be shy, hey
Baby, that's why you and I
You and I should break up

Hey, baby, I'll give you my hand, we
What? You're breaking up with me?
I thought you were proposing

Elle, if I'm gonna be a senator when I'm thirty
I'm gonna need somebody, serious
Less of a Marilyn, more of a Jackie, serious
Somebody classy and not too tacky

What?
Okay, that came out wrong
Baby, let's both be strong

I mean, we've known all along
Just shut up, what does that mean
I'm not a Jackie?
I'm not serious? But I am seriously in love with you

Baby, my future's all planned
I've got some dreams to make true
I thought that you'd understand
It's time to get serious, time to get serious, check this

Lyrics

All of this time I planned I'd be patient and
You would love me again
You'd come to respect my mind and at last you'd find
You could love me again

And I have turned my whole world upside down
Trying not to let you go
Watching you walk away is like a fatal blow

Whoa! Is that my name up on that list?
Does someone know that I exist?
Is this a mistake? Am I even awake?
Pinch me now to make sure

Ow! Yes, that's my name in black and white
Maybe I'm doing something right
Wow! I feel so much better than before

Warner, sorry I've been a pest
But I guess my best was not working with you
But looks like I've found a cure
And I so look forward to working with you
What? Working with who?

Hey, remember when we spent spring break
In the hot tub every night
We said nothing else could ever feel so right
Well, this might!

Seeing my name up on that list
That beats the first time that we kissed
You thought I was dumb
But I think that somebody's judgment was poor

Seeing my name in black and white
It's like making love with you all night
No wait, it feel so much better, hello, much better
It's oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, much better
'Cause I am so much better than before

Yes, she's so much better than before
Yes, she's so much better than before

Maybe she's what you prefer
But hey, last year I was her
Maybe you will change your mind
But you might look up to find

I've gone on to better things
Better jobs or bigger rings
I don't have the time to cry

I'm too busy loving my name up on that list
Kind of a cool, ironic twist
Who else can I tell? Hoo! Wait, where's my cell?
Mom will fall on the floor

Hey mom!
Look at my name in black and white
Your daughter's doing something right
I feel so much better

I'll be there on Monday, 9 o'clock
And we will see who walks the walk
No, no, I can't wait, I will be there at 8
When they unlock the door

Oh, oh! I'll even dress in black and white
See, I have not begun to fight
And you'll go, oh, much better and oh, much better
And soon all y'all gotta know much better

I am so much better
I am so much better
I am so much better than before!
