ARTIST: Lovin’ Spoonful  
TITLE: Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind  
Did you ever have to make up your mind  
Pick up on one and leave the other behind  
It’s not often easy and not often kind  
Did you ever have to make up your mind

Did you ever have to finally decide  
Say yes to one and let the other one ride  
There’s so many changes and tears you must hide  
Did you ever have to finally decide  
Sometimes there’s one with big blue eyes, cute as a bunny  
With hair down to here, and plenty of money  
And just when you think she’s that one in the world  
You heart gets stolen by some mousey little girl  
And then you know you’d better make up your mind…  
Sometimes you really dig a girl the moment you kiss her  
And then you get distracted by her older sister  
When in walks her father and takes you a line  
And says, “You better go home, son, and make up your mind”  
And then you bet you’d better finally decide…

i find it’s best to seek the physical and emotional counsel of a third in order to best judge each unique characteristic of the first two.
