(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 bass:

	 Em [N.C.]   [slower]
