Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Midnight rockers, city slickers
Gunmen and maniacs
All will feature on the freak show
And I can't do nothing 'bout that, no
[PreChorus]
But if you hurt what's mine
I'll sure as hell retaliate
S-s-serious, infectious and dan-
Serious, in-, serious, infectious and dangerous
[Chorus]
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 2]
Serious, in-, serious
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 3]
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
[PreChorus]
But if you hurt what's mine
I'll sure as hell retaliate
I-I-I-I-I was looking back to see if you were
I was looking, I wa-
I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me
To see me looking back at you
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
Se-ser-, se-ser-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-I-I-I-I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me
To see me looking back at you
[PreChorus]
But if you hurt what's mine
I'll sure as hell retaliate
[Chorus]
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
