You were pub crawling, doing the visiting fireman bit at the taverns and the beast books. You're on your way home now and you're going to stop off at Krauss's

new stand for the papers. Oh man Krauss, he's been there as long as you can remember. And then you see the commotion. Somebody's working the old man over, beating him to the ground. You get there as fast as you can.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, it's you Mr. Chambers, thank you. Easy as he does it Mr. Krause. Come here, come here. Come on. Let me help you up. Ah, hey, ah.

Did you see him, Mr. Chambers? Did you see who it was? No, he ran off as he saw me coming. Did you get a look at him, Mr. Krause? No, I was just closing it.

If I'm behind him, then he'd chumped me. But, but why you? Where does a man like you fit in with a beating? Oh, it was smarter that Mr. Chambers. More than a beating. What are you talking about?

Whoever was wanted to kill me. Why, you're a peaceful man, Mr. Kraus, the thoughtful, peaceful, philosophical man. Everybody loves you. Seems not everybody. Hmm, well, look, I'm going home with you. No, no, no, no, I'm taking you home.

You need not bother, Mr. Chambers. I am not afraid. Oh, come along. Come along, I'm a Scraus. Come on. Thank you, thank you. You are very kind. He doesn't live far, and he's nothing the worst for his experience.
