"I'm Back"

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, I'm back

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

I murder a rhyme one word at a time

You never, heard of a mind as perverted as mine

You better, get rid of that .9, it ain't gonna help

What good's it gonna do against a man that strangles himself?

I'm waitin' for hell like, "Hell, shit, I'm anxious as hell"

Manson, you're safe in that cell, be thankful it's jail

I used to be my mommy's little angel at 12

13 I was puttin' shells in a gauge on a shelf

I used to, get punked and bullied on my block

'Til I cut a kitten's head off and stuck it in this kid's milk box

I used to give a fuck, now I could give a fuck less

What do I think of success? It sucks

Too much press, I'm stressed, too much cess, depressed

Too upset, it's just too much mess, I guess

I must just blew up quick (yes)

Grew up quick (no), was raised right

Whatever you say is wrong, whatever I say is right

You think of my name now whenever you say, "Hi"

Became a commodity because I'm W-H-I

T-E 'cause MTV was so friendly to me

Can't wait 'til Kim sees me

Now, was it worth it? Look at my life, how is it perfect?

Read my lips, bitch, what? My mouth isn't workin'?

You hear this finger? Oh, it's upside down

Here, let me turn this motherfucker up right now

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(Shady, I'm) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

I take each individual degenerate's head and reach into it

Just to see if he's influenced by me if he listens the music

And if he feeds into this shit, he's an innocent victim

And becomes a puppet on the string of my tennis shoe

My name is Slim Shady

I've been crazy way before radio didn't play me

The sensational, "Back is the incredible!"

With Ken Kaniff, who just finds the men edible

It's Ken Kaniff on the, internet

Tryin' to, lure your kids with him, into bed

It's a sick world we live in these days

"Slim, for Pete's sakes put down Christopher Reeve's legs!"

Geez, you guys are so sensitive

"Slim it's a touchy subject, try and just don't mention it"

Mind with no sense in it, fried to get schizophrenic whose

Eyes get so squinted

I'm blind from smokin' 'em with my windows tinted

With nine limos rented, doin' lines of coke in 'em

With a bunch of guys hoppin' out

All high and indo scented

And that's where I get my name from

That's why they call me

They call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

I take seven k- from C-, stand 'em all in line

Add an AK-47, a revolver, a .9

A Mack-11 and it oughta solve the problem of mine

And that's a whole school of bullies shot up all at one time

'Cause I'm Shady, they call me as crazy

As the world was over, this whole Y2K thing

And by the way, N'Sync, why do they sing?

Am I the only one who realizes that they stink?

Should I dye my hair pink and care what y'all think?

Lip sync and buy a bigger size of earrings?

It's why I tend to block out when I hear things

'Cause all these fans screamin' is makin' my ears ring

So I just, throw up a middle finger and let it linger

Longer than the rumor that I was stickin' it to Christina

'Cause if I ever stuck it to any singer in showbiz

It'd be Jennifer Lopez, and Puffy you know this

I'm sorry Puff, but I don't give a fuck if this chick was my own mother

I'd still fuck her with no rubber and cum inside her

And have a son and a new brother at the same time

And just say that it ain't mine, what's my name?

I'm Slim Shady

(I'm) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, I'm back

That's why they call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

They call me Slim Shady

(I'm back) I'm back, (I'm back) I'm back

Guess who's back, back?

Gue-gue-guess who's back?

Hi mom! Guess who's back?

Gue-guess who's back?

D-12, guess who's back?

Gue-gue-gue-gue, guess who's back?

Dr. Dre, guess who's back?

Back-back-back, back

Slim Shady, 2001

I'm blew out from this blunt

Fuck
