[Verse 1]
F# Bm
I murder a rhyme, one word at a time
G Em
You never heard of a mind as perverted as mine
F# Bm
You better get rid of that .9, it ain't gonna help
G Em
What good's it gonna do against a man that strangles himself?
F# Bm
I'm waitin' for Hell, like Hell, shit, I'm anxious as Hell
G Em
Manson, you're safe in that cell, be thankful it's jail
F# Bm
I used to be my mommy's little angel at twelve
G Em
Thirteen, I was puttin' shells in a gauge on a shelf
F# Bm
I used to get punked and bullied on my block
G Em
'Til I cut a kitten's head off and stuck it in this kid's mailbox
(Hey Ma', Ma'!)
F# Bm
I used to give a fuck, now I could give a fuck less
G Em
What do I think of success? It sucks, too much press
F# Bm
I'm stressed, too much cess, depressed, too upset
G Em F# Bm
It's just too much mess, I guess I must just blew up quick (Yes)
Grew up quick (No), was raised right
G Em F#
Whatever you say is wrong, whatever I say's right
Bm
You think of my name now whenever you say, "Hi"
G Em F#
Became a commodity 'cause I'm W-H-I-
Bm G
T-E, 'cause MTV was so friendly to me
Em
Can't wait 'til Kim sees me
F# Bm
Now, is it worth it? Look at my life, how is it perfect?
G Em
Read my lips, bitch! What, my mouth isn't workin'?
F# Bm
You hear this finger? Oh, it's upside down
G Em
Here, let me turn this motherfucker up right now

F# Bm
That's why they call me Slim Shady (Shady)
G Em
I'm back (I'm back), I'm back (Slim Shady!)
 
[Verse 2]
F# Bm
I take each individual degenerate's head and reach into it
G Em F#
Just to see if he's influenced by me, if he listens to music
Bm G
And if he feeds into this shit, he's an innocent victim
Em
And becomes a puppet on the string of my tennis shoe
F# Bm
My name is Slim Shady
G Em
I been crazy way before radio didn't play me
F# Bm
The sensational, "Back is the incredible!"
G Em
With Ken Kaniff, who just finds the men edible
F# Bm
It's Ken Kaniff on the Internet
G Em
Tryin' to lure your kids with him into bed (Uh)
F# Bm
It's a sick world we live in these days
G Em
"Slim, for Pete's sakes, put down Christopher Reeve's legs!"
F# Bm
Geez, you guys are so sensitive
G Em
"Slim, it's a touchy subject, try and just don't mention it"
F# Bm G
Mind with no sense in it, fried schizophrenic whose eyes get so squinted
Em F# Bm
I'm blind from smoke in 'em with my windows tinted
G
With nine limos rented, doin' lines of coke in 'em
Em F# Bm
With a bunch of guys hoppin' out, all high and indo-scented
G
And that's where I get my name from
Em
That's why they call me—
 
[Chorus]
F# Bm
They call me Slim Shady (I'm back)
G Em
I'm back (I'm back), I'm back (Slim Shady)
F# Bm
That's why they call me Slim Shady (I'm back)
G Em
I'm back (I'm back), I'm back (Slim Shady)
F# Bm
That's why they call me Slim Shady (I'm back)
G Em
I'm back (I'm back), I'm back (Slim Shady)
F# Bm
That's why they call me Slim Shady (I'm back)
G Em
I'm back (I'm back), I'm back (Back) (Slim Shady)
 
[Verse 3]
F# Bm
I take seven {kids} from {Columbine}, stand 'em all in line
G Em
Add an AK-47, a revolver, a .9
F# Bm
A MAC-11 and it oughta solve the problem of mine
G Em
And that's a whole school of bullies shot up all at one time (Ahh-! Ahh-ahh-!)
F# Bm
'Cause I'm Shady, they call me as crazy
G Em
As the world was over this whole Y2K thing
F# Bm
And by the way, NSYNC, why do they sing?
G Em
Am I the only one who realizes they stink?
F# Bm
Should I dye my hair pink and care what y'all think
G Em
Lip sync and buy a bigger size of earrings?
F# Bm
It's why I tend to block out when I hear things
G Em
'Cause all these fans screamin' is makin' my ears ring (Ahh!)
F# Bm
So I just throw up a middle finger and let it linger
G Em
Longer than the rumor that I was stickin' it to Christina
F# Bm
'Cause if I ever stuck it to any singer in showbiz
G Em
It'd be Jennifer Lopez and Puffy, you know this
F# Bm
I'm sorry, Puff, but I don't give a fuck
G Em
If this chick was my own mother, I'd still fuck her with no rubber
F# Bm
And cum inside her and have a son and a new brother
G Em
At the same time and just say that it ain't mine — what's my name?
 
[Chorus]
F# Bm
I'm Slim Shady (I'm back)
G Em
I'm back (I'm back), I'm back (Slim Shady)
F# Bm
That's why they call me Slim Shady (I'm back)
G Em
I'm back (I'm back), I'm back (I'm- I'm back) (Slim Shady)
F# Bm
That's why they call me Slim Shady (I'm back)
G Em
I'm back (I'm back), I'm back (Slim Shady)
F# Bm
They call me Slim Shady (I'm back)
G Em
I'm back (I'm back), I'm back (Slim Shady)
 
[Outro]
F# Bm G
Guess who's b-back, back
Em F# Bm
Gue-gue-guess who's back (Hi, Mom!)
Guess who's back
G Em
Gue—guess who's back
F# Bm
D--12 guess who's back
G Em
Gue, gue-gue-gue, guess who's back
F# Bm
Dr. Dre guess who's back
G Em
Back back back
F# Bm G Em
Slim Shady, 2001
F# Bm G Em

F# Bm G Em
fuck
 
F# Bm G Em x3
