Who do you see when I’m not seeing you? The news is out all over town And all these girls are taking turns at being you Well well well You’d better make up your mind Honey are you straight or are you blind? She’s coming in between us you know that she is I’m not holding on to her but one of us is My hands are in my pocket my face is in a book She could walk ’round naked and I wouldn’t sneak a look Chorus Honey are you straight or are you blind? Honey are you straight or are you blind? Honey are you straight or are you blind? Honey are you straight or are you blind? She walked in and your eyes flew out the door You squeezed my hand ’til the circulation ceases She’s just a doll like so many more She’s the kind of doll that you’d like to pull to pieces Chorus Well well well You’d better make up your mind Honey are you straight or are you blind?

La chanson aborde une dynamique compliquée entre amoureux, mettant en lumière le doute et la confusion. Elle pose des questions sur la perception et l'attirance, mettant en avant des tensions autour de l'engagement et de la fidélité. Le protagoniste s'interroge sur les intentions de sa partenaire, se demandant si elle est vraiment engagée ou si elle se laisse distraire par d'autres. Le contexte semble évoquer des moments de jalousie et d'incertitude dans une relation, où des influences extérieures, comme une autre femme, viennent semer le trouble. Cela traduit un sentiment d'angoisse palpable, malgré une attitude assurée, reflétant ainsi les luttes intérieures que chacun peut connaître dans ses relations amoureuses.
