My Name Is
Performed By: Eminem
From the album: "The Slim Shady LP" (1999)


Hi! My name is (what?)...my name is (who?)...
My name is... Slim Shady
Hi! My name is (huh?)...my name is (what?)...
My name is... Slim Shady

Hi! My name is (what?)...my name is (who?)...
My name is... Slim Shady
Hi! My name is (huh?)...my name is (what?)...
My name is... Slim Shady

Ahem...excuse me!
Can I have the attention of the class for one second...

Hi kids! Do you like violence?
Wanna see me stick nine inch nails through each one of my eyelids?
Wanna copy me and do exactly like I did?
Try 'cid and get fucked up worse than my life is?
My brain's dead weight, I'm tryin' to get my head straight
But I can't figure out which Spice Girl I want to impregnate
Dr. Dre said:

[Dr. Dre] Slim Shady you a basehead..."

Uh-uhhh!

[Dr. Dre] "Then why's ya face red, man you wasted..."

Well since age 12 I've felt like I'm someone else
'Cause I hung my original self from the top bunk with a belt
Got pissed off and ripped Pamela Lee's tits off
And smacked her so hard I knocked her clothes backwards like Kris Kross
I smoke a fat pound of grass and fall on my ass
Faster than a fat bitch who sat down too fast
C'mere slut! (Shady, wait a minute, that's my girl dog!)
I don't give a fuck, God sent me to piss the world off

Hi! My name is (what?)...my name is (who?)...
My name is... Slim Shady
Hi! My name is (huh?)...my name is (what?)...
My name is... Slim Shady

My English teacher wanted to fuck me in junior high
The only problem was, my English teacher was a guy
I smacked him in his face with an eraser
Chased him with a stapler
And stapled his nuts to a stack of paper
Walked in a strip club, had my jacket zipped up
Flashed the bartender and stuck my dick in the tip cup
Extraterrestrial, running over pedestrians
In a space ship while they're screamin' at me: "Let's just be friends"
99% of my life I was lied to
I just found out my mom does more dope than I do
I told her I'd grow up to be a famous rapper
Make a record about doin' drugs and name it after her  
You know you blew up when the women rush the stands
To try to touch your hands like some screamin' Usher fans
This guy at White Castle asked for my autograph
So I signed it: "Dear Dave, thanks for the support, asshole!"

Hi! My name is (what?)...my name is (who?)...
My name is... Slim Shady
Hi! My name is (huh?)...my name is (what?)...
My name is... Slim Shady

Stop the tape! This kid needs to be locked away
Dr. Dre don't just stand there, operate
I'm not ready to leave, it's too scary to die
I'll have to be carried inside the cemetery and buried alive
Am I comin' or goin'? I can barely decide
I just drank a fifth of vodka...dare me to drive?
All my life I was very deprived
I ain't had a woman in years, my palms are too hairy to hide
Clothes ripped like the Incredible Hulk
I spit when I talk, I'll fuck anything that walks
When I was little I used to get so hungry I would throw fits
How you gonna breast feed me Mom you ain't got no tits!
I lay awake and strap myself in the bed
Put a bulleproof vest on and shoot myself in the head
I'm steamin' mad
And by the way when you see my dad
Tell him that I slit his throat in this dream I had

Hi! My name is (what?)...my name is (who?)...
My name is... Slim Shady
Hi! My name is (huh?)...my name is (what?)...
My name is... Slim Shady
