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

  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

[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

'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?
