If it ain't twist, it's slop.
If it ain't go, it's stop.
You either flip or flop.
Gotta be this or that.
Either you're cool or square.
If you're not here, you're there.
You just can't be nowhere
Gotta be this or that
Who can it be if it ain't me?
I know it's not your brother
Can't you see it's gotta be
One way or the other
Either say cat or dad
If it ain't right, it's sad
Call it a room or pad
Gotta be this or that
If it ain't half, it's whole
If it ain't rock, it's froze
If it ain't wild, it's sold
Gotta be this or that
If it ain't small,
you're high diggin'
Either you're square or diggin'
If it ain't half, it's weak
Gotta be this or that
Who can it be if it ain't me?
I know it's not your brother
Can't you see it's gotta be
one way or the other
If you ain't thin, you're fat,
either you stay or scat
If it ain't girl, it's that,
gotta be this or that
Nah, it's gotta be this, it's gotta be that
It's got to be Ella or Frankie or Nat
But it's gotta be this or that
But it's gotta be this or that
