Yes, man! As the world turns We all experience things in life Trials and tribulations, that we all must go through When someone wants to test us When someone tries our patience I hang with a bunch of hippies and wacky tobacco planters Who swallow lit roaches and light up like jack-o-lanterns Outsidaz baby, and we suin' the courts Cause we dope as fuck and only get a 2 in The Source, yo They never shoulda booted me outta reform school Deformed fool, taking a shit in a warm pool Till they threw me out the Ramada Inn I said it wasn't me, I got a twin "Oh my God, it's you! Not again!" It all started when my mother took my bike away 'Cause I murdered my guinea pig and stuck him in the microwave After that, it was straight to the 40 ouncers Slappin' teachers and jackin' off in front of my counselors Class clown freshman, dressed like Les Nessman Fuck the next lesson, I'll pass the test guessin' And all the other kids said "Eminem is a thizz head" "He'll never last, the only class he'll ever pass is phys-ed" Maybe true, till I told this bitch in gym class That she was too fat to swim laps she need a Slim Fast "Who? Me?" Yeah, bitch, you so big, you walked into Vic Tanny's and stepped on Jenny Craig She picked me up to snap me like a skinny twig Put me in a headlock, then I thought of my guinea pig I felt the evilness and started transformin' It began stormin', I heard a bunch of cheerin' fans swarmin' Grabbed that bitch by her hair, drug her across the ground And took her up to the highest diving board and tossed her down Sorry coach, it's too late to tell me stop While I drop this bitch face down and watch her belly flop As the world turns These are the days of our lives These are the things that we must go through, day by day We drive around in million dollar sports cars While little kids hide this tape from their parents like bad report cards Outsidaz, and we suing the courts 'Cause we dope as fuck and only get a 2 in The Source Hypochondriac, hanging out at the laundromat Where all the raunchy fat white trashy blondes be at Dressed like a sailor, standin' by a pail of garbage It's almost dark and I'm still tryna nail a trailer park bitch I met a slut and said "What up? It's nice to meet ya" "I'd like to treat you to a Faygo and a slice of pizza" "But I'm broke as fuck and I don't get paid till the first of next month" "But if you would care to join me, I was about to roll this next blunt" "But I ain't got no weed, no Phillies, or no papers" "Plus I'm a rapist and a repeated prison escapist" "So give me all your money and don't try nothing funny" "'Cause you know your stinking ass is too fat to try to outrun me" I went to grab my gun, that's when her ass put it on me With an uppercut and hit me with a basket of laundry I fell through the glass doors, started causing a scene Slid across the floor and flew right into a washing machine Jumped up with a broken back Thank God I was smokin' crack all day and doped up on coke and smack All I wanted to do was rape the bitch and snatch her purse Now I wanna kill her But yo, I gotta catch her first Ran through Rally's parkin' lot and took a shortcut Saw the house she ran up in and shot her fuckin' porch up Kicked the door down to murder this divorced slut Looked around the room that's when I seen her bedroom door shut I know you're in there bitch, I got my gun cocked You might as well come out now, she said "Come in, it's unlocked" I walked in and all I smelled was Liz Claiborne And seen her spread across the bed naked watchin' gay porn She said "Come here big boy, let's get acquainted" I turned around to run, twisted my ankle and sprained it She came at me at full speed, nothing could stop her I shot her five times and every bullet bounced off her I started to beg "No, please let go" But she swallowed my fuckin' leg whole like an egg roll With one leg left, now I'm hoppin' around crippled I grabbed my pocket knife and sliced off her right nipple Just tryna buy me some time then I remembered this magic trick Duh-dah-duh-dah-duh-duh! Go-go gadget dick! Whipped that shit out, and ain't no doubt about it It hit the ground and caused an earthquake and power outage I shouted "Now bitch, let's see who gets the best" Stuffed that shit in crooked and fucked that fat slut to death "Come here, bitch!" "Come here! Take this mothafuckin' dick, bitch!" "Come here!" And as we go along, throughout the days of our lives We all face small obstacles and challenges everyday That we must go through These are the things that surround us through our atmosphere, every day Every single day the world keeps turning Keeps turning Keeps turning Keeps turning
