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
