As I took my lunch today
Had some time to stroll along the beaten path
The Embarcadero was filled and I was thrilled
Because the sunshine filled the air

Beautiful women, talkin’ to men
Coworkers, they must’ve been
Business attire, hair up in buns,
Lunch break or day off, it’s all so much fun

As I took my lunch today
Had some time to stroll along the beaten path
The Embarcadero was filled and I was thrilled
Because the sunshine filled the air

A woman my age, just up ahead
She’s sitting and gaming, an LCD game
I can’t help from staring, she’s calling my name
Slow and steady, I walked further away

I couldn’t approach her and she was all alone
I had a pickup line ready but I walked away
Why? Why? Why didn’t I say hello?
Oh! Jeez! She was all alone, but I walked away

As I took my lunch today
Had some time to stroll along the beaten path
The Embarcadero was filled and I was thrilled
Because the sunshine filled the air
