Almost Famous

I can almost taste it
This shit makes no sense to me
What does it all mean?
I can almost taste it
I can almost see it

This shit makes no sense to me
What does it all mean?
I can almost taste it

Yeah, can't stop now (I can almost taste it)
This might be the last chance I get to be famous

You dream of tradin' places, I have been changin' faces
You cannot fill these shoes, there is too much to lose
Wake up behind these trenches, you run around defenseless
There is too much to lose, you cannot fill these shoes
I just wanna be famous, but be careful what you wish for

I stuck my - in this game like a -
They call me Slim Roethlisberger
I go berserker than a fed-up post office worker
I murk her with a -, I'm - off, get murdered

Like someone took a ketchup squirter, squirted a frankfurter
For a gangsta, you sure did - your pants
When you saw the chainsaw get to wavin' like a terrible towel
How thangs turn around when his fangs come out

Get your brains -, that's what I call blowin' your mind
When I - back, like nut on your spine
I'm a thumb tack that you slept on, son
Now here I come, screamin', "Attack" like I just stepped on one

Low on the totem 'til he showed 'em defiance, giant -
He don't owe 'em -, his britches, he outgrowed 'em
He's so out cold, he's knocked out at the South Pole
And nobody - with him, rigor mortis and post-mortem

He's dyin' of boredom
Take your best rhymes, record 'em, then try to thwart him
He'll just take your punch lines and snort 'em
-stained drawers, you gon' - with a guy

Who licks the blades of his chainsaws
While he dips 'em in P.F. Chang's sauce?
Game's up, homie, hang it up like some crank calls
You think I'm backin' down?
You must be out of your dang skulls, I'm almost famous

You dream of tradin' places, I have been changin' faces
You cannot fill these shoes, there is too much to lose
Wake up behind these trenches, you run around defenseless
There is too much to lose, you cannot fill these shoes
I just wanna be famous, but be careful what you wish for

I'm back for revenge, I lost a battle, that ain't happenin' again
I'm at your throat like strep, I step, strapped with a pen
Metaphors wrote on my hand, some are just stored in my memory
Some I wrote on a napkin, I do what I have to win

Pullin' out all stops, any who touch a mic prior's
Not even Austin Powers, how the - are they Mike Myers?
And tell that psycho to pass the torch to the wacko
'Fore I take a - in his Jack-o'-lantern and smash it on his porch

Now get off my -, -'s too short of a word for my -
Get off my antidisestablishmentarianism, you -
Don't call me the Champ, call me the Space Shuttle Destroyer
I just blew up the Challenger, matter fact, I need a lawyer

I just laced my gloves with enough plaster to make a cast
Beat his - naked and peed in his corner like Verne Troyer
Y'all are Eminem backwards, you're Mini Mes
See, he's in a whole nother weight class

He's slugs, you're BBs, you're bean-bag bullets
You're full of it, you were dissin' his CD's
Laughed at Infinite, now he's back like someone pissed in his Wheaties
No peace treaties, he's turned into a beast
His new Slim Shady EP's got the attention of the mighty D.R.E
He's almost famous

You dream of tradin' places, I have been changin' faces
You cannot fill these shoes, there is too much to lose
Wake up behind these trenches, you run around defenseless
There is too much to lose, you cannot fill these shoes
I just wanna be famous, but be careful what you wish for

Now there he goes in Dre's studio, cuppin' his -
Screamin' the wood off the panelin', cussin' the paint off the walls
Spewin' his hate to these haters, showin' no love for these broads
He ain't givin' 'em -, he says he'll pinch a penny so hard

He'll leave a bruise on the bronze so dark you can see the mark
With the scars, 'til Abraham Lincoln is screamin' out, "Ah"
These metaphors and similes ain't similar to them, not at all
If they don't like it, they can all get -

Instead of -
They can go get a belt or a neck tie to hang themselves by
Like David Carradine, they can go - themselves and just die
And eat - while they at it, he's - had it

He's mad at the whole world
So go to hell and build a snowman, girl
The bullies become bullied, and - get pushed
Then they better pull me, take me back to 9th grade to school me

'Cause I ain't lookin' back, only forward, this whole spot blowin'
Who coulda known he'd grow to be a poet and not know it?
And while I'm bein' poetic, let me get it Stoic and raise the bar
Higher than my opinion of these women's been lowered
So bear witness to some biblical -, there's a cold wind blowin'
This world ain't gonna know what hit it
He did it, he made it, he's finally famous
