If you think you're gonna have the time
To make up your mind
You shouldn't even try

I'm tired of hearing all of your lines
Just tell me that you're mine


You know I'm better than she'll ever be
It's very clear to me
No more

I'll let you mess with me
But baby can't you see


[Chorus:]
You can only have (one or the other)
Is it gonna be her or is it gonna be me ?

You can only have (one or the other)
If it's gonna be her
You gotta set me free


Let me tell you that it hurts so bad
When you're the last to know

My friends told me so
My heart was always just for you
But now you want her too


You see her you try her
You're always on fire

But boy I've got news for you
You've taken advantage
But baby you can't have

Your cake and eat it too

One or the other

You can't get it right
You say I'm your lover
But someone else is waiting


One or the other
I'm not gonna fight

This won't last forever
So stop your hesitating


One or the other
You can't get it right
You're so undercover you always think I'm playing

One or the other

You want me tonight

I'm not gonna play
It boy
I'm not with it


One or the other
You got to get it right

Said ya can't have
Your cake and eat it too
