Ballad Of San Francisco

So I'm walking down the street somewhere outside of San Francisco
 And I don't really know my way around
 And I'd love to stay a day or two and get into some trouble
 But tomorrow I'll be in another town
 And there's at least one coffee bar for every single couple
 And there's at least a couple in this place
 Strange the things you notice when the walls are closing in
 And the walls are closing in on me today
 So where, oh where, can I find someone, anyone
 'Cause there's no way outta here
 But here is where I live and so I guess that means
 The carrot's gonna dangle for at least another year
 And I love anonymity and I love being noticed
 Just the same as anybody else
 Years ago I told you how I loved to be alone
 These days I'd be perjuring myself
 So where, oh where, can I find someone, anyone
 'Cause there's no way outta here
 But here is where I live and so I guess that means
 The carrot's gonna dangle for at least another year
 It's like you gave me up, like I gave up drinking coffee
 So I guess I would've done the same
 And now I know I'm lost somewhere outside of San Francisco
 But I'm still glad that I came
 So where, oh where, can I find someone, anyone
 'Cause there's no way outta here
 But here is where I live and so I guess that means
 The carrot's gonna dangle for at least another year
 And where, oh where, can I find someone, anyone
 'Cause there's no way outta here
 But here is where I live and so I guess that means
 The carrot's gonna dangle for at least another year
