[LK05] The Kansas City Shuffle (feat. K-Liz)

[synth bass emulationg NCPD Siren from CP2077, launch version — inexplicably changed in updates] Can you hear this sound? No more messin' around. They'll unleash their hounds They'll pin you to the ground. Make a call to your moms, guys You won’t see the sun for a while Not ‘til you face your crime Pay your debt, do your time Cops are coming, they’re coming for you Their sense of justice is strong and true Today’s a lesson you’re gonna learn (Wait… are they doing a U-turn?) Oh, dudes, I forgot, this is NC Cops here are a joke — silly me! Oh, dudes, I forgot, there ain’t no laws Except the three rules, the rules of the Sprawl… [Conversation check - ✔️] Rule one: you are your reputation Not bullets but street creds are your ammunition You can be over-chipped but still be losers Without rep you are chinpira, tourists, posers. Yeah, you're the ones with the guns, I can see it too But you still have the safety on, clumsy you! I see you're quite flustered, have you ever shot? Rep zero, as I said, but you guys are kinda cute. Let me introduce myself, I am K-Liz The street knows me and I know the street And you guys? Don't answer. You are nobody, my friends. And if you try to pull the trigger, it will just be your end. Oh, dudes, did you forget this is NC? Cops here are a joke, sure, but not me! Oh, dudes, did you forget, there ain’t no laws Except the three rules, the rules of the Sprawl… [Reputation check - ✔️] Rule two: don't fuck with fixers They are the base of our wicked structure Respect your contracts and don't mess with others' 'Cause they know where you live, still with your mothers I hooked up with most of them (double meaning intended) My services are well known, (I dare say, appreciated) Not the best but the cutest techie in town They will not take it well if you put me down Don't fuck with fixers and they will not fuck you Always keep in mind this rule, the number two I do, 'cause I work for the boss of the Afterlife: Hiro, a master fixer — my half-sister is his wife Oh, man, did you forget this is NC? Hiro's no joke, much worse than me! Oh, man, did you forget, there ain’t no laws Except the three rules, the rules of the Sprawl [Intimidate check - succeeded ✔️] Rule three: eddies are eddies Cash, e-bucks, dough, readies Everything has a fucking price label And sometimes something just isn't worth the trouble Take me as an example, I have no Ennie on me My pockets, full of rep, are sadly money-free And there's no thing you'd force me to do That I'd not do — willingly and happily too! I have just this koto, this bamboo flute And of course this, my shami, my loyal lute It's something I treasure, I call it "love" Because it's always at hand when I need some [Persuade check - succeeded ✔️] Weeeeell... Time's up, dudes! It's getting late and I've no time to lose. You fell for the oldest trick in the book Please turn around and take a look You are four, but much higher are my numbers Moxes, Bozobs, Inquisitors, Animals And, cherry on top, upon this mob My sweet not-so-gentle giant, my man: Bob You forgot another rule, letting me blather: There's a time for talking, and a time for shooting Now, you three guys are fucked up, can't you see? Why just three? 'Cause you, blondie... YOU are coming with me. (No... Sweetheart... You aren't going to be fucked up.) (Fucked? Yes, but... mostly down)
