Actually, as a college kid I went to visit a friend in Washington DC and we were in a bar for about ten minutes before we realized that all the couples dancing were gay men. Some of them looked pretty good! We got out of there fast

I was feelin� kinda restless on a Saturday night
Oh mama�just what the doctor ordered
We walked into the club, we had nothin� to lose
Oh yeah�..this IS paradise
I stood there fascinated just a soakin� up the scene
She strolled up to the barstool and she ordered up a drink
Oh yeah� oh yeah����
We boogied to the left and then we boogied to the right
Oh oh. Not that�s there�s anything wrong with that��.I think I better go find Ricky�
I grabbed my buddy Ricky and I said its time leave
see what I mean, Ricky�.what ever happened to truth in advertising, anyway? This ain�t no paradise�..

Called my buddy Ricky said, �lets go for ride�
We fired up our Harleys and we spun out of town
Lookin� for some fun, there wasn�t nothing� around
When what should appear before our sorry eyes
But a glowin� neon sign sayin� �Club Paradise�
The lady on the jukebox was a wailin� the blues
Standin� room only - the dance floor was packed
Pretty women everywhere a standin� back to back
I turned to look at Ricky, to ask him what to do
He was doin� the Watusi with girl named Cindy Lou
When into Paradise walked the woman of my dreams
Her legs were long and slender and her lips were ruby red
Her body all a glitter from her toes up to her head
Her eyes a stunning green and her hair the shade fire
She was all a man could ask for, and she was my heart�s desire
She looked in my direction and I think I saw a wink
I gathered up my courage, I just had take a chance
The woman was too sexy not to ask her for a dance
She looked at me and smiled, she did not say a word
The thumpin� of my heart beat was the only thing I heard
They finally played a slow song and we held each other tight
I felt something unnatural just above her thigh
It made me kinda queasy, and I had to wonder why
As we danced a little closer I began to understand
That this wasn�t paradise and this woman was a man
And he offered up resistance as I yanked him by the sleeve
I said you gotta listen, this ain�t the Real McCoy
That woman I was dancing with turned out to be boy
Just then a girl approached us, grabbing Ricky by the hand
Said, �how you fellers doin�, my name is Stan�
