[Girl] Yeah, 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 Guinness 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

Looking 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

Someone keeps pullin' on my sleeve

I don't wanna, but I gotta stay

These drugs really got a hold of me

'Cause every time I try to tell them "no"

They won't let me ever let them go

I'm a sucker all I gotta say

These drugs really got a hold of me

[Eminem]

In third grade, all I used to do

Was sniff glue through a tube and play Rubic's 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 ecstasy 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 wallow 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

Babysitting for Hailie while Hailie's out getting smashed

[Chorus 2x]

[Same as previous, but 2nd time the last line is repeated like this]

Drugs really got a hold of me

They really got a hold of me

'Cause drugs really got a hold of me

They really got a hold of me
