When the man was a child
He came from space
In a big glass case
Everything wondered why
But they soon forgot
And they loved him not

And he's still living in this town
Down at the old San Marino
And the starlight is streaming down
Down on the old San Marino

When the world was a child
Creation came
In a big glass frame
And the stars watched and smiled
As it shone like a jewel
In an endless pool

And he's still living in this town
Down at the old San Marino
And they're spinning their partners 'round
Down at the old San Marino

And he's still living in this town
Down at the old San Marino
And the starlight is streaming down
Down on the old San Marino
Down on the old San Marino
