produced by Bass Brothers & Eminem

written by Eminem

INTRO:

Yo, man I'm trying to get ahold of that dope, man I need to get some of that dope (I need a kilo)

FIRST VERSE (Eminem):

Who came through with two Glocks to terrorize your borough? Told you how to slap dips and murder your girl? (I did) Gave you all the finger and told you to sit and twirl Sold a billion tapes, and still screamed "Fuck the world" (Slim Shady) So come and kill me while my name's hot And shoot me 25 times in the same spot (Ow) I think I got a generation brainwashed To pop pills and smoke pot 'til they brains rot Stop they blood flow 'til they veins clot I need a pain shot and a shot of plain Scotch Purple haze and acid raindrops Spike the punch at the party and drink pop Shaved my armpits and wore a tank top Bad Boy, I told you that I can't stop You gotta make 'em fear you 'fore you make 'em feel you So everybody bump my shit or I'ma come and kill you

CHORUS:

I got mushrooms, I got acid, I got tabs and aspirin tablets I'm your brother when you need some good weed to set you free You know me, I'm your friend when you need a Mini Thin (I'm Slim Shady, Shady, Shady, Shady) I'm Shady

SECOND VERSE (Eminem):

I like happy things, I'm really calm and peaceful (Yes) I like birds, bees, I like people (whistling) I like funny things that make me happy and gleeful (Haha) Like when my teacher sucked my wee-wee in preschool (Hee-hee) I'm ill enough to stab myself with a steel spike (Uh) While I blow my brain out just to see what it feels like (Pew) 'Cause this is how I am in real life I don't want to just die a normal death I wanna be killed twice (Twice) How you gonna scare somebody with a gun threat When they strung out on drugs they haven't even done yet (Huh?) So bring the money by tonight 'Cause your wife said this the biggest knife (Help me, oh my god) She ever saw in her life I try to keep it positive and play it cool Shoot up the playground and tell the kids to stay in school (Stay in school) Cause I'm the one they can relate to and look up to better Tonight I think I'll write my biggest fan a fuck-you letter

CHORUS:

THIRD VERSE (Eminem):

Yo, I'll listen to your demo tape and act like I don't like it (That shit's wack) Six months later, you'll hear your lyrics on my shit (What, that's my shit) People don't buy shit no more, they just dub it That's why I'm still broke and had the number-one club hit (Yup, uh-huh) But they love it when you make your business public So fuck it, I've got herpes while we on the subject (Yeah) And if I told you I had AIDS, y'all would play it 'Cause you stupid mothafuckas think I'm playin' when I say it (Well) I do take pills, don't do speed Don't do crack, don't do coke, I do smoke weed (Yup) Don't do smack, I do do shrooms, do drink beer (Yup) I just wanna make a few things clear My baby mama's not dead, she's still alive and bitching (Yup, uh) And I don't have herpes, my dick's just itchin' (itchin') It's not syphilis, and as for being AIDS-infested I don't know yet, I'm too scared to get tested (Yeah)

CHORUS:

OUTRO:

Hahahahaha-ha (I'm shady!) Hahahaha-hahaha
