"Well, first of all, I couldn't see his face... he was holding a gun against me and... um... I was thinking this is a dangerous place
Well, this is a dangerous place"

"I say I'm nervous as hell from this thing 'cause those guys were gonna kill me for sure... I mean they ganged up on me like that I couldn't believe it! Look I'm still shaking. it's weird go out on the streets like this... you can't... dangerous place. It's a dangerous place"
"So suddenly these two guys appear in front of me... stop... real aggressive... start at me, ya know, "What... what's that, what's that on that tape, whata you got there," I said, "It's a tape"
"Whata you talkin' into that for? " I said, "it's just a tape, 'ya know
They said, "Well play it for us," I said, "Oh no!" I put them off
As long as I could and finally they turned it on, ya know, they grabbed it from me, took it away from me, turned it on and it says
"He held a gun in his hand, this is a dangerous place" they said
"what dangerous place, what gun-you a policeman!"
The deeper I talked the worse I got into it. I talk-I told 'em I said
"Look man, I'm not talk," it went on forever, anyway, I finally unbuttoned my shirt an said, "Look, look, I'm in this band here, ya know I'm in this band, ya know, and we're making a recording, ya know, it's just about New York City, it's about crime in the streets"
The explanation was goin' nowhere, but finally they just kinda let me go, I don't know why... so I walk around the corner, I'm shakin' like a leaf now an' I thought this is a dangerous place once again, ya know... Who should appear but two policemen..."

This is a dangerous place to live..."
