Lyrics for Studio Sessions
Well, first of all, I couldn't even see his face I couldn't see his face He was holding a gun against me and, uhm I was thinking, this is a dangerous place Well, this is a dangerous place I said, I'm nervous as hell from this stuff Because those guys were gonna kill me for sure Really, they ganged up on me like that I couldn't believe it I mean, look, I'm still shaking, you know? It's weird Go out in the streets like this, you can't It's a dangerous place It's a dangerous place So suddenly These two guys appear in front of me Start real aggressive Start at me, you know "Wha- what's that?" "What that on that tape?" "What do you got there?" I said "it's a tape" "What are you talking at me that for?" I said, "oh, it's just a tape, you know?" And they said, "well, play it for us" I said "oh no" They couldn't find it They turn it on, you 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 What dangerous? What gun? What gun? You a policeman?! The deeper I talked, the worse I got into it I talked, I totally, I said Look man, I'm not- It went on forever Anyway, I finally unplug my shit I said, look, look, I'm in this band here, you know? I'm in this band, you know? And we're making a recording, you know? It's just about New York City It's about crime in the streets The explanation was going nowhere But finally they just kinda let me go, I don't know why I don't know why So I walk around the corner I'm like shaking like a leaf Now I thought, this is a dangerous place once again, you know Who should appear with 2 police men?
