King Crimson

Thela Hun Ginjeet

Well

first of all

I couldn't even see his face.

I couldn't see his face.

He was holding a gun in his hand.

Umm... I was thinking...

This is a dangerous place..

This is a dangerous place..

I said

I'm nervous as hell from this stuff.I thought those guys were going to kill me for sure.They ganged up on me like that.I couldn't believe it.Look, I'm still shakin'.Weird.There out in the streets like that.It's a dangerous place.It's a dangerous place.

So

suddenly

these two guys appear in front of me.

They stopped.

Real aggressive.

Start at me

you know.

What's that?

What's that on that tape?

What do you got there?"

I said

huh?

They said

What are you talking into that for?

I said

It's just a tape, you know

Well play it for me

I said "oh

no"

I put it off as long as I could.

And finally they turned it on

you know

They grabbed it from me.

Took it away from me.

Turned it on.

And it said

He held a gun in his hand. This is a dangerous place.

They said

What dangerous place?

What gun?

You're a policeman!

And the deeper I talked

the worse I got into it.

I talked

I told him... I said

Look man, I'm not talkin'....

It went on forever.

Anyway

I finally unbuttoned my shirt

and said

look, look... I'm in this band, you know, I'm in this band you know,and we're makin' a recording, you know.It's 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.

So I walk around the corner

and I'm like shakin' like a leaf

and I thought

This is a dangerous place

Who should appear

but two policeman.
