| "And now, the wonderous world of.." "Hey, come to Los Angeles!
 You and your family can have peace and tranquility.
 Enjoy the refinement.."
 "Hey Bone, hey nigga where you at though?"
 "Hello, my name is Elaine --
 And I'll be your tour guide through South Central Los Angeles"
 
 How to survive in South Central (what you do?)
 A place where bustin a cap is fundamental
 No, you can't find the shit in a handbook
 Take a close look, at a rap crook
 Rule number one: get yourself a gun
 A nine in your ass'll be fine
 Keep it in your glove comparment
 Cause jackers (yo) they love to start shit
 Now if you're white you can trust the police
 But if you're black they ain't nothin but beasts
 Watch out for the kill
 Don't make a false move and keep your hands on the steering wheel
 And don't get smart
 Answer all questions, and that's your first lesson
 On stayin alive
 In South Central, yeah, that's how you survive
 "Hi this is Elaine again.
 Are you enjoying your stay in South Central Los Angeles,
 Or is somebody taking your things? Have you witneesed a driveby?
 Okay, make sure you have your camcorder ready
 To witness the extracurricular activities on blacks by the police,
 So you and your family can enjoy this tape, over and over again."
 "This is Los Angeles." "This is Los Angeles."
 
 Rule number two: don't trust nobody
 Especially a bitch, with a hooker's body
 Cause it ain't nuttin but a trap
 And females'll get jacked and kidnapped
 You'll wind up dead
 Just to be safe don't wear no blue or red
 Cause most niggaz get got
 In either L.A., Compton or Watts
 Pissed-off black human beings
 So I think you better skip the sight-seeing
 And if you're nuttin but a mark
 Make sure that you're in before dark
 But if you need some affection mate
 Make sure the bitch ain't a section eight
 Cause if so that's a monkey-wrench hoe
 And you won't survive in South Central
 "Now you realize it's not all that it's cracked up to be.
 You realize that it's fucked up!
 It ain't nothin like the shit you saw on TV.
 Palm trees and blonde bitches?
 I'd advise to you to pack your shit and get the fuck on;
 Punk motherfucker!"
 And you need your ass straight smoked
 Yo I wanna say whassup to DJ Chilly Chill
 Sir Jinx, aiyyo Cube these motherfuckers don't know what time it is
 So show these motherfuckers what's happenin
 Tell these motherfuckers, don't fuck around in South Central
 God damnit!
 
 Rule number three: don't get caught up
 Cause niggaz are doing anything that's thought up
 And they got a vice
 On everything from dope, to stolen merchandise
 We discern
 Cause South Central L.A., is one big yearn
 Waitin for a brother like you to catch a disease
 And start slangin ki's
 To an undercover or the wrong brother
 And they'll smother, a out of town motherfucker
 So don't take your life for granted
 Cause it's the craziest place on the planet
 In L.A. heroes don't fly through the sky of stars
 They live behind bars
 So everybody's doin a little dirt
 And it's the youngsters puttin in the most work
 So be alert and stay calm
 As you enter, the concrete Vietnam
 You say, the strong survive
 Shit, the strong even die, in South Central
 Yeah you bitches, you think I forgot about your ass,
 You tramp-ass hoes? You better watch out.
 And for you so called baller-ass niggaz,
 You know what time it is. South Central ain't no joke.
 Got to keep your gat at all times motherfuckers.
 Better keep one in the chamber and nine in the clip god damnit.
 You'll sho' get got, just like that.
 This ain't no joke motherfuckers.
 Now I wanna send a shout-out to E-Dog, the engineer,
 Puttin his two cents in..
 "This is Los Angeles."
