If You’re Going to San Francisco

To the tune of Scott McKenzie’s “San Francisco

If you’re going to San Francisco,
Be sure to wear a clothespin on your nose.
Don’t be going to San Francisco.
A big open-air toilet that smells not like a rose.

Those who come to San Francisco
Have to consult a very detailed map
For where it’s safe in San Francisco
To stay away from the many piles of crap.

All across the nation
So much mad agitation.
So much commotion.

We’re watching degeneration
Called re-imagination.
Just so much commotion;
So much commotion.

If you come to San Francisco,
Be sure to wear a clothespin on your nose.
If you come to San Francisco,
That pin’s for more than clothes.

If you come to San Francisco,
Be sure to study that map.

    I left my crap
    In San Francisco
    high on a hill
    for all to see

  2. CAB

    Too much. Wicked humor, plus poetic skill, equals Dave Martin.

    Per Michael Savage call it San Fran-sicko
