You live upon a stage, and everyone's agreed 
You're the brightest hope by far that anyone can see 
So when you take the limelight you can guarantee 
You're gaining fame and claiming credibility 
Tell me baby are you gonna get high as a kite? 
Tell me baby are you gonna let it happen every night 
How can you expect to be taken seriously? 
 
You live within the law, and everyone assumes 
You must find this a bore, and try something new 
You're an intellectual giant, an authority 
To preach and teach the whole world about ecology 
Tell me baby are you gonna make any other claim? 
Tell me baby are you gonna take any of the blame? 
How can you expect to be taken seriously? 
How can you expect to be taken seriously? 
(Seriously) 
(Seriously) 
 
You live within the headlines, so everyone can see 
You're supporting every new cause and meeting royalty 
You're another major artist on a higher plane 
Do you think they'll put you in the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame? 
Tell me baby how you generate longevity 
Tell me baby how you really hate publicity 
How can you expect to be taken seriously? 
How can you expect to be taken seriously? 
Seriously (seriously) 
Seriously, aah
