Lyrics

I live in San Francisco, and all my friends are gay
We like to go to discos, dancing 'til the break of day
My friends all have cool haircuts, and great designer clothes
I pretend to check out their butts, so nobody knows that I'm a
Straight guy
Can't be gay no matter how I try
Straight guy
But my gay friends won't accept me that way
So I have to lie
I guess I've always known, that I was hetero
I'd lie in bed alone, thinkin' bout the girls I know
Will I ever get married? Will I be a dad?
Why is this so scary? God, am I bad, for being a
Straight guy
Can't be gay no matter how I try
Straight guy
But my gay friends won't accept me that way
So I have to lie
I have to lie
So I have to lie
I have to lie
One more thing I wanna know is: Is there some kind of way
That I can make it in show biz, without bein' gay? 'cause I'm a
Straight guy
Can't be gay no matter how I try
Straight guy
But I wanna get a contract with Geffen Records
So I have to lie
I have to lie
So I have to lie
I have to lie
I'm a straight guy
I'm a straight guy
