[Verse 1]
We are so serious
Letting the money take control
Of the love that we should know
The music's mysterious
Bringing together you and me
Taking in that frequency, yeah

[Chorus]
Slow down
Pretending that you know
Where we're supposed to go
Through generations of just getting told
Don't question the control
Working on to beg
A life of always gone

[Verse 2]
We are too serious
We're letting the money take control
Of the love that's in our soul
And the music's mysterious
Bringing together you and me
Taking in that frequency, yeah

[Bridge: scatting]

[Verse 3]
We are too serious
We're letting the money take control
Of the love that we should know
And the music's mysterious
Bringing together you and me
Taking in that frequency, yeah

[Chorus]
Slow down
Pretending that you know
Where we're supposed to go
Through generations of just getting told
Don't question the control
Working on to beg
A life of always gone
