[Girl] Yeaaah, hahahaha...whooooo, shit!
[Em](aight)
[Eminem] Guess what? I ain´t coming in yet...
I´ll come in a minute
[Eminem] Ayo...This is my love song...it goes like this
[Eminem]
Back when Mark Walhberg was Marky Mark
This is how we used to make the party start
We used to mix Hen´ with Bacardi Dark
And when it, kicks in you can hardly talk
And by the, sixth gin you´re gonna probably crawl
And you´ll be, sick then and you´ll probably barf
And my pre-diction is you´re gonna probably fall
Either somewhere in the lobby or the hallway wall
And everything´s spinning
You´re beginin´ to think women
are swimming in pink linen again in the sink
Then in a couple of minutes that bottle of Guiness is finished
You are now allowed to officially slap bitches
You have the right to remain violent and start wilin´
Start a fight with the same guy that was smart eyin´ you
Get in your car, start it, and start drivin´
Over the island and cause a 42 car pile-up
[Em´s spaceman voice]Earth calling, pilot to co-pilot
Look at the life on this planet, sir, no sign of it
All I can see is a bunch of smoke flyin´
And I´m so high that I might die if I go by it
Let me out of this place
I´m outta place
I´m in outer space
I´ve just vanished without a trace
I´m going to a pretty place now where the flowers grow
I´ll be back in an hour or so
Chorus
[Eminem]
´Cause every time I go to try to leave
Something keeps pullin´ on my sleeve
I don´t wanna, but I gotta stay
These drugs really got ahold of me
´Cause every time I try to tell them "no"
They won´t let me ever let them go
I´m a sucka all I gotta say
These drugs really got ahold of me
[Eminem]
In third grade, all I used to do
Was sniff glue through a tube and play rubix cube
17 years later I´m as Rude as Jude
Scheming on the first chick with the hugest boobs
I´ve got no game
And every face looks the same
They´ve got no name
So I don´t need game to play
I just say whatever I want to whoever I want
Whenever I want, wherever I want, however I want
However, I do show some respect to few
As ecstacy got me standing next to you
Getting sentimental as fuck spillin´ guts to you
We just met
But I think I´m in love with you
But you´re on it too
So you tell me you love me too
Wake up in the morning like "yo, what the fuck we do?"
I gotta go bitch
You know I have stuff to do
´Cause if I get caught cheatin´ then I´m stuck with you
But in the long run
These drugs are probably going to catch up sooner or later
But fuck it, I´m on one
So let´s enjoy
Let the X destroy your spinal cord
So it´s not a straight line no more
´Til we walk around looking like some wind-up dolls
Shit´s sticking out of our backs like a dinosaur
Shit, six hits won´t even get me high no more
So bye for now
I´m going to try to find some more
Chorus
[Eminem]
That´s the sound of a bottle when it´s hollow
When you swallow it all wollow and drown in your sorrow
And tomorrow you´re probably going to want to do it again
What´s a little spinal fluid between you and a friend? Screw it
And what´s a little bit of alcohol poisoning?
And what´s a little fight?
Tomorrow you´ll be boys again
It´s your life
Live it however you wanna
Marijuana is everywhere
Where was you brought up?
It don´t matter as long as you get where you´re going
´Cause none of the shit is going to mean shit where we´re going
They tell you to stop, but you just sit there ignoring
Even though you wake up feeling like shit every morning
But you´re young
You´ve got a lot of drugs to do
Girls to screw
Parties to crash
Sucks to be you
If I could take it all back now, I wouldn´t
I would have did more shit that people said that I shouldn´t
But I´m all grown up now and upgraded and graduated
Did better drugs and updated
But I´ve still got a lot of growing up to do
I´ve still got a whole lot of throwing up to spew
But when it´s all said and done I´ll be 40
Before I know it with a 40 on the porch telling stories
With a bottle of Jack
Two grandkids in my lap
Babysiting for Haley while Haley´s out getting smashed
Chorus 2x (Same as previous, but 2nd time
the last line is repeated like this)
Drugs really got ahold of me
They really got ahold of me
´Cause drugs really got ahold of me
They really got ahold of me
