[Intro] (I never knew I) Mic check one-two (I never knew I) Who would've knew? (I never knew I) Who would've known? (I never knew I) f** would've thought? (I never knew I) Motherf**er comes out (I never knew I) And sells a couple of million records (I never knew I) And these motherf**ers hit the ceiling [Verse 1] I don't do black music, I don't do white music I make fight music, for high school kids I put lives at risk when I drive like this I put wives at risk with a knife like this sh**, you probably think I'm in your tape deck now I'm in the back seat of your truck, with duct tape stretched out Ducked the f** way down, waiting to straight jump out Put it over your mouth, and grab you by the face; what now? Oh, you want me to watch my mouth How? Take my f**ing eyeballs out and turn them around? Look, I'll burn your f**ing house down, circle around And hit the hydrant, so you can't put your burnin' furniture out I'm sorry, there must be a mix-up You want me to fix up lyrics While the President gets his dick s**ed? f** that! Take d**, rape s*uts Make fun of gay clubs, men who wear make-up Get aware, wake up, get a sense of humor Quit tryin' to censor music, this is for your kid's amusement But don't blame me when little Eric jumps off of the terrace You should've been watching him, apparently you ain't parents [Hook] ‘Cause I never knew I, knew I would get this big I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid I never knew I'd get him to slit his wrist I never knew I'd get him to hit this b**h [Verse 2] So who's bringing the guns in this country? I couldn't sneak a plastic pellet gun Through customs over in London And last week I seen this Schwarzenegger movie, where he's shooting all sorts of these motherf**ers with an Uzi I sees three little kids up in the front row Screaming "Go!", with their 17-year-old uncle I'm like, guidance... ain't they got the same moms and dads Who got mad when I asked if they liked violence And told me that my tape taught 'em to swear? What about the make-up You allow your 12-year-old daughter to wear? So tell me that your son doesn't know any cuss words When his bus driver's screaming at him, f**ing him up worse (Go sit the f** down, you little f**ing prick!) And "f**" was the first word I ever learned Up in the third grade, flipping the gym teacher the bird So read up 'bout how I used to get beat up Peed on, be on free lunch And changed school every three months My life's like kind of what my wife's like f**ed up after I beat her f**ing a** every night, Ike So how much easier would life be If 19 million motherf**ers grew to be just like me? [Hook] ‘Cause I never knew I, knew I would get this big I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid I never knew I'd get him to slit his wrist I never knew I'd get him to hit this b**h [Verse 3] I never knew I, knew I'd have a new house or a new car A couple years ago I was more poorer than you are I don't got that bad of a mouth, do I? f**! sh**! Ass! b**h! c*nt! Shooby-de-doo-wop! Skibbedy-be-bop, a Christopher Reeve Sonny Bono, skis, horses and hitting some trees How many retards'll listen to me, and run up in the school shooting when they're pissed at a teach-er? Her? Him? Is it you? Is it them? "Wasn't me, Slim Shady said to do it again!" Damn, how much damage can you do with a pen? Man, I'm just as f**ed up as you would've been If you would've been in my shoes, who would've thought Slim Shady would be something that you would've bought? That would've made you get a gun and shoot at a cop I just said it, I ain't know if you'd do it or not [Hook] ‘Cause I never knew I, knew I would get this big I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid I never knew I'd get him to slit his wrist I never knew I'd get him to hit this b**h [Outro] How the f** was I supposed to know?
