Saturday night and danger is my friend

It's Saturday night here in cold, foggy San Francisco and I'm out on the streets again with my trusty pistol in my right hand. Down on Folsom Street and there's danger on every corner, with angry madmen rushing at me in the alleys.

"Gimme your money!" one old punk screams at me.

But I don't fear any man because my pistol is a true menace to society and I whip it out and the moonlight glimmers off it and I start firing a few rounds and the gunshots echo into the night and the punk whimpers off into the wind.

"Gimme your watch!" orders a black obese woman with a dagger in her mouth.

I shoot off a round and the bullet pierces the blade of her knife and ricochets off and sends the woman flying into a gutter full of mud and filth.

I head home. Nobody's worth wasting another precious bullet.

Bayview Hunters Point in San Francisco

Stay out of Bayview if you ever visit San Francisco. Those are some mean streets down there and ain't nobody gotta tell me twice 'cause I've had my fair share of violence. Got lost down there in the southeast part of the city in the dark of night and damn I ain't never been more frightened. Even with my fists of fury and a couple pocket blades, I knew I was outmatched by the thugs that surrounded me in the cold, numbness of Bayview Hunters Point.

Crazy Man downtown

Be careful around the cable car turnaround in San Francisco because tonight I was over there and there was this black man in a McGrady t-shirt who had has pants down near his ankles and was walking around and wandered right into the street without looking and pow! a taxi crashed right into him and the black man's body flew into a million different directions and one of his arms landed right in front of me so I grabbed it quickly and ran off to put the damn thing in ice and then list it on www.ebay.com because there's always someone out ther ein need of a few fingers or some arm bones.
