(Spoken:)
 
This following program is dedicated to the city and people of San
Francisco
Who may not know it, but they are beautiful - and so is their city
This is a very personal song, so if the viewer cannot understand it -
particularly those of you who are European residents - save up
all your bread and fly Trans-Love Airways to San Francisco, USA
Then maybe you'll understand the song
It will be worth it - if not for the sake of this song
But for the sake of your own peace of mind

Verse 1:
 
Strobe light's beam creates dreams
Walls move minds do too
On a warm San Franciscan night
Old child, young child, feel all right
On a warm San Franciscan night
 
Verse 2:
 
Angels sing, leather wings
Jeans of blue, Harley-Davidsons too
On a warm San Franciscan night
Old angels, young angels feel all right
On a warm San Franciscan night
 
Bridge:
 
I wasn't born there
Perhaps I'll die there

There's noplace left to go

Verse 3:
 
Cop's face is filled with haight
Heavens above, he's on a street called Love
When will they ever learn
Old cop, young cop feel all right
On a warm San Franciscan Night
 
Bridge 2:
 
The children are cool
They don't raise fools
It's an American dream
Includes Indians, too
