Up front

Oh...oh...oh...oh...
Oh...

I wanna get it straight up front
Let’s tell each other what we want
So we can both decide up front
If we like it or we don’t

Just as long as I’m single
I’m gonna do what the heck I please
I don’t feel it’s fair
For you to be restrictin’ me

If you want a serious commitment
You got to first make one yourself
If you want it one-sided
You’d better find somebody else

That’s why I wanna get it straight up front
Let’s tell each other what we want
So we can both decide up front
If we like it or we don’t

I’ve been in relationships
Where I’ve given all of myself
I did everything for him
He did everything for someone else

Now don’t misunderstand me
I’m not prejudgin’ you
But if, if you plan to fool around
Let me know so I can do it too

Baby, get it straight up front
Let’s tell each other what we want
So we can both decide up front
If we like it or we don’t

Decide up front
Up front
Up front

Oh...oh...oh...oh...
Up front
Oh...
Up front
Ha...ha...ooh...ooh...
Grrr

I know everything can’t be predicted
Because love don’t work that way
But we can at least agree on the rules
Before we start to play

Baby, get it straight up front
Let’s tell each other what we want
So we can both decide up front
If we like it or we don’t

Decide up front
Up front
Up front

Oh...oh...oh...oh...
Up front
Oh...
Up front

Get it straight up front
Oh...we won’t
Get it straight up front
We won’t (What we want)

Get it straight up front
Uh...uh...uh...
