[Verse 1: Shara Nelson]

Midnight rockers, city slickers

Gunmen and maniacs

All will feature on the freak show

And I can't do nothing 'bout that, no

[Refrain: Shara Nelson]

But if you hurt what's mine

I'll sure as hell retaliate

[Pre-Chorus: 3D]

Serious, infectious, and dan-

Serious, in-, serious, infectious, and dangerous

[Chorus: Shara Nelson]

You can free the world, you can free my mind

Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight

You can free the world, you can free my mind

Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight

[Post-Chorus: 3D]

Serious, in-, serious, in-

Serious, infectious, and dangerous

Friends and enemies, I find it's contagious

I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me

To see me looking back at you

[Verse 2: Shara Nelson]

Lucky dippers, crazy chancers

Seems to be moving fast

What happened to the niceties of my childhood days?

Well I can't do nothing 'bout that, no

[Refrain: Shara Nelson]

But if you hurt what's mine

I'll sure as hell retaliate

[Pre-Chorus: 3D]

I was, I was, I was looking back to see if you were

I was looking, I was

I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me

To see me looking back at you

[Chorus: Shara Nelson]

You can free the world, you can free my mind

Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight

You can free the world, you can free my mind

Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight

[Verse 3: 3D]

Se-, serious, se-, serious

Serious, infectious, and dangerous

Friends and enemies, I find it's contagious

And they're spreading through your system like a virus

Yes, the trouble in the end, it makes you anxious

I was looking, I was

I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me

To see me looking back at you

I was, I was

I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me

To see me looking back at you

[Refrain: Shara Nelson]

But if you hurt what's mine

I'll sure as hell retaliate

[Chorus: Shara Nelson]

You can free the world, you can free my mind

Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight

You can free the world, you can free my mind

Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight
