Scissor Sisters

Well she left me here halfway
Between the bright lights of Los Angeles
And the tawdry nights of San Jose
With Ecstasy and Ivory wave
And a backpack full of captain jack
To take me to an early grave
And I've never been to paradise
Standing on this corner by myself
You don't have to tell me twice
And the world's not gonna end
If I could just pretend
And here's a place to go
San Luis Obispo
And the streets they may look the same
Of any town by any name
Gonna find my afterglow
San Luis Obispo
The difference between delight
And loneliness could be a one way flight
In these San Luis Obispo nights
It's where no one seems to mind
If you string words together with
Kool cigarettes and sparkling wine
Keep the conversation light
Wait until the girls get underdressed
Then the talk gets less polite
And I could stay here for all my days
But will I spend my life deciding if
Happiness is just a phase
