The Lyrics
The Louvriness of Paris was not Montmartre’s way;
the glory that was Rome has become buffone.
In the 50’s, the Beats’ roamed; off they’d gotten from Manhattan.
They found a home in the city by The Bay.
They’ve left, the arts, from San Francisco—
high are the bills. . .technology.
Can’t cope with the digital stars, overpriced coffee bars;
sky-high rents drive artists from there; move to where
costs are more fair; “bye” San Francisco.
They’re moving to vicinities
for a new home; say “Screw San Francisco!”
Golden Age done. . .technocracy.
the glory that was Rome has become buffone.
In the 50’s, the Beats’ roamed; off they’d gotten from Manhattan.
They found a home in the city by The Bay.
They’ve left, the arts, from San Francisco—
high are the bills. . .technology.
Can’t cope with the digital stars, overpriced coffee bars;
sky-high rents drive artists from there; move to where
costs are more fair; “bye” San Francisco.
They’re moving to vicinities
for a new home; say “Screw San Francisco!”
Golden Age done. . .technocracy.
