Be Serious Ann Songtext
von Tommy Collins

I have come to tell you of my love for you, Ann
With a small diamond ring
For the finger of your left hand
Are you smiling, are you crying?

And all your laughing
Be serious, Ann
If you can
One time

My heart is a-pounding
It took all my nerve to come here
This is my first time to love anyone so dear
What′s funny, am I a clown?

Quit your laughing
Be serious, Ann
If you can
One time


There's not any need for you to joke quite so much, Ann
You′ve no right to do this
To torture and ridicule a man
Stop your laughing
Please, Ann

I don't like it
Be serious, Ann
If you can
One time

You're laughing at me, again
I can′t stand it, Ann
You′ve mocked me and ruined me
And now you'll die at my hands
I loved you
But you laughed at me

And I warned you
Be serious, Ann
Dead serious
One time
