[Intro: Cindy Herron]
This is a man's world, ha, so they say…

[Verse 1: Cindy Herron, En Vogue]
Why you tryna break down walls without me?
Why you tryna move at all without me?
Don't you know you won't get very far without me?
You know you'll never rule the world without me, indeed

[Chorus: En Vogue]
So serious, you got this
So serious, we won't quit
So serious, we got this
So serious, we don't quit

[Verse 2: Rhona Bennett, En Vogue]
How you gonna bring new life without me?
And the world just can't survive without me
Together we can win but you shouldn't lose without me
You sure you wanna make that move without me, indeed?

[Chorus: En Vogue]
So serious, you got this
So serious, we won't quit
So serious, we got this
So serious, we won't quit
[Verse 3: Terry Ellis, En Vogue]
Why you tryna fight this war without me?
You know you can't stand as tall without me
Now don't you know you just can't fight 'em all without me?
Don't benefit to rise or fall without me, indeed

[Chorus: En Vogue]
Ooh, so serious, you got this
So serious, we don't quit
Ooh, so serious, we got this
So serious, we don't quit
