"Stan". released on October 10, 2000 is the third single from The Marshall Mathers LP, by Eminem featuring Dido. It is also included on Curtain Call: The Hits, performed with Eminem and Dido as well as track 17 on Curtain Call: The Hits as a Live Performance from the 2001 Grammy awards featuring Elton John. The Marshall Mathers LP 2 track "Bad Guy" is the sequel to Stan.
Background[]
It peaked at number one in the United Kingdom and Australia. It is also included on Curtain Call: The Hits, performed with Eminem and Dido as well as track 17 on Curtain Call: The Hits as a Live Performance from the 2001 Grammy awards featuring Elton John. The song was produced by The 45 King, and uses a slightly modified break from Dido's "Thank You" as its base sample. The track also samples the opening lines of "Thank You" as its chorus. Coincidentally, both songs were released as singles in late 2000. Stan has been called one of Eminem's best songs and is considered one of his signature songs.
Rolling Stone magazine ranked the song #290 in their list in The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. Stan was also listed #15 on VH1's list of the greatest hip hop songs of all-time. In April 2011, Complex magazine put together a list of the 100 Greatest Eminem songs, ranking "Stan" at #2.
The song tells the story of a fictional man named Stan who claims to be Eminem's biggest fan. Throughout the song, he becomes progressively more and more obsessed with Eminem, culminating in a murder-suicide by Stan. The first three verses are delivered by Eminem as Stan while the fourth verse is Eminem attempting to write to Stan, only to realize that he had already heard about Stan's death on the news.
In the uncensored version of the music video, which wasn't released commercially, there are more abusive suggestions. For example, when Stanley is driving towards the bridge with his girlfriend in the trunk, his girlfriend (Dido) is actually seen tied up and gagged in the trunk struggling. She has duct tape over her mouth but is then seen being able to eventually get it off and start screaming.
Music Video[]
The video is a literal interpretation of the story, directed by Dr Dre and Philip Atwell featuring Devon Sawa as Stan and Dido as his pregnant girlfriend. A prologue involves Stan dying his hair blonde and reacting angrily to being called "Stanley" by his girlfriend. ‘Stan’ in the video is actually a real person called Stanley Mitchell and lives in Portland, MO. Later, Marc Labelle, EM’s road manager, is the guy who hands him Stan’s letter on the tour bus.
Stan sits in a room full of Eminem's posters, writing letters that express his devotion as "your Eminem's biggest fan." He is aware of even the most minute developments in Eminem's personal life.
Stan gets mad at his girlfriend (Dido) when she interrupts him watching “The Way I Am” video.
Stan wants Eminem to contact him through a personal letter or a phone call; but, due to unfortunate circumstances, the letters fail to reach Eminem in a timely manner. Believing he has been ignored, Stan uses a tape recorder to record himself driving along a rain-soaked highway while his girlfriend's tied up in the trunk; which he does with the intentions of driving off a bridge. In the process, Stan references both "My Name Is" ("I drank a fifth of vodka, dare me to drive?") and the popular urban legend about Phil Collins's "In the Air Tonight" before realizing that there's no way of transmitting this final tape to Eminem, proceeding to commit the act anyway.
Eminem finally gets around to responding to Stan. He apologizes for being late, thanks to him for being a fan, and expresses interest in Stan's personal life. Eminem worries about Stan's mental state and says he doesn't want Stan to end up like a story he had seen on the news recently—a man who had driven drunk off a bridge with his girlfriend in the trunk, about whom he quickly realizes, "It was you. Damn.”
At the end of the “Stan” video, you can see Stan’s reflection in the window looking at EM when the lightning strikes.

Lyrics for Stan[]
[Chorus: Dido]
My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I..
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window..
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'll all be gray,
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad,
It's not so bad..
[Verse: Eminem as Stan]
Dear Slim, I wrote but you still ain't callin
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not-a got 'em
There probably was a problem at the post office or somethin
Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em
But anyways; fuck it, what's been up? Man how's your daughter?
My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm bout to be a father
If I have a daughter, guess what I'ma call her?
I'ma name her Bonnie. I read about your Uncle Ronnie too, I'm sorry
I had a friend kill himself over some bitch who didn't want him
I know you probably hear this everyday, but I'm your biggest fan
I even got the underground shit that you did with Skam
I got a room full of your posters and your pictures man
I like the shit you did with Rawkus too, that shit was fat
Anyways, I hope you get this man, hit me back, just to chat
Truly yours, your biggest fan, This is Stan
[Chorus: Dido]
My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I..
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window..
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'll all be gray,
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad,
It's not so bad..
[Verse: Eminem as Stan]
Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance
I ain't mad - I just think it's fucked up you don't answer fans
If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your concert
You didn't have to, but you coulda signed an autograph for Matthew
That's my little brother man, he's only six years old
We waited in the blistering cold for you, four hours and you just said, "No."
That's pretty shitty man - you're like his fuckin idol
He wants to be just like you man, he likes you more than I do
I ain't that mad though, I just don't like bein' lied to
Remember when we met in Denver - you said if I'd write you
You would write back - see I'm just like you in a way I never knew my father neither;
He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
I can relate to what you're saying in your songs
So when I have a shitty day, I drift away and put 'em on
Cause I don't really got shit else so that shit helps when I'm depressed
I even got a tattoo of your name across the chest
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
It's like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
See everything you say is real, and I respect you cause you tell it
My girlfriend's jealous cause I talk about you 24/7
But she don't know you like I know you Slim, no one does
She don't know what it was like for people like us growin up
You gotta call me man, I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose
Sincerely yours, Stan -- P.S. We should be together too
[Chorus: Dido]
My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I..
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window..
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'll all be gray,
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad,
It's not so bad..
[Verse: Eminem as Stan]
Dear Mr. I'm-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans,
This'll be the last package I ever send your ass
It's been six months and still no word - I don't deserve it?
I know you got my last two letters; I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect
So this is my cassette I'm sending you, I hope you hear it
I'm in the car right now, I'm doing 90 on a freeway
Hey Slim, 'I drank a fifth of vodka, dare me to drive'?
You know the song by Phil Collins, "In the Air of the Night"
About that guy who coulda saved that other guy from drowning
But didn't, then Phil saw it all, then at a show he found him?
That's kinda how this is, you coulda rescued me from drowning
Now it's too late - I'm on a 1000 downers now, I'm drowsy
And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off the wall
I love you Slim, we coulda been together, think about it
You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it!
And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it!
I hope your conscience eats at you and you can't breathe without me!
See Slim; [*girlfriend screaming*] Shut up bitch! I'm tryin to talk!
Hey Slim, that's my girlfriend screamin' in the trunk,
But I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain't like you
Cause if she suffocates she'll suffer more, and then she'll die too
Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now
Oh shit, I forgot, how'm I supposed to send this shit out?
[Chorus: Dido]
My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I..
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window..
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'll all be gray,
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad,
It's not so bad..
[Verse: Eminem as himself]
Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner but I just been busy
You said your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she?
Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that
And here's an autograph for your brother, I wrote it on a Starter cap
I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show, I must’ve missed you
Don't think I did that shit intentionally just to diss you
But what's this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists too?
I say that shit just clownin dog, c'mon - how fucked up is you?
You got some issues Stan, I think you need some counseling
To help your ass from bouncing off the walls when you get down some
And what's this shit about us meant to be together?
That type of shit'll make me not want us to meet each other
I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
Or maybe you just need to treat her better
I hope you get to read this letter, I just hope it reaches you in time
Before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin just fine
If you relax a little, I'm glad I inspire you, but Stan,
Why are you so mad? Try to understand that I do want you as a fan
I just don't want you to do some crazy shit
I seen this one shit on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
And had his girlfriend in the trunk, and she was pregnant with his kid
And in the car they found a tape, but they didn't say who it was to
Come to think about, his name was.. it was you
Damn.

El-Elyon Elohim El Shaddai Adoni - speaking, showing, educating, outlasting, casting no drama, not leaking, flowing over not seeping and about to get M&M's mother's phone number for a dollar yesterday rather than tomorrow from the Widow the fatherless the Sojourner and the weekend I was told it was the only way to get her real number . Yes sir . I will introduce you to my friend who will be there on Monday for sure. if you have any questions or need help with anything please let me know what's good I got the quivering quill it is my mustard seed quill, and I just wrote myself into 50's beef with murder ink and Hackman as Brill. Yeah cuz I'm about to pick up a couple sides a couple slabs and a couple cuts I like to eat slow cooked brisket for 12 hours at 170 and you pull that shit out after it's been submerged sauce for that tweet. you boil that s*** down on the stove by till its like caramelized yayo on fleek. cooling off and it's fine and you just shred your fingers across the top of the brine and let it go up into your hand like some mother f****** perfectly cooked super tender strips of bubble yum and a broken read smoking flax silently in the street. I just transmogrified the toughest into the most tender that you can find is now the brisket that I just made and I just put it in your brain and taught your f****** taste buds how to behave leaving my spare watchmen with plenty of extra oil to help you tame it by the end of the week.so here we go I didn't even have to touch the tip your tongue all I had to do was silence you a little bit and now you're going to wonder what that s*** taste like with caramelized steak sauce came from a brisket Epic Meal Time hashtag we love you for it. Forward slash Jack and sauce and I'm pretty sure FPS Russia just changed his dragons breath rounds from his 20 round drum mag and his AA-12 it's a mother f****** watermelon instead of a blood bath. yeah Rick Ross is the boss and so is Megan Rain. so here we go I'm pretty sure no I'm absolutely positive with no equivocations that I love God Forgot with your Dumbo ears and your chicken legs this Enemy of the State is not a slugger and rarely mistaken fate. LOL Elohim elsh die I don't I is the phonetic nephew of ElElyon Elohim El Shaddai Adonai. I AM certain and convinced that because Busta Rhymes said I'm going to wait till they learn to listen a little faster so I don't have to slow down for him I don't like to wait forcing me into bringing them with us so they would ketchup and not miss the punch and pie of the next vine. Then we slid up next to Eminem and Hopson and saw the list of those that get in had added two more names to the book of life. My impatience is standing in the gate I'm breaching the gap I'm riding the walls of Jericho as they fall the White Water of Jericho of the Jordan yes is my call. With one foot on one side and one foot on the other bank I just recruited the half-sided half tribe of Manasseh and this Israel for a bite and what we hears was the roaring of many mighty Waters all of them aka God's voice. My forward slash just kicked you in the chest with my bootstrap on my sandal and I'm pretty sure that you just descended Into the Depths of the well at mizpah and you found Sue-elen Crandall looking humble. Now I'm standing there looking down into the pit as the god king bleeds yet I still know yet held to the truth and the thing that I know about this is that we still know that you are the rap God even if you're wearing a noose. Hanging from the walls your mirrored eyes peering lifeless across the yard and all your dead body can see is Mordecai and Ja Rule yeah they just what was it traveled the longest yard instead of the green mile. I just opened my mouth and plagues flew out all 100 instead of 99 oh God. Yeah that works but it's just so unbelievable I know yeah Mordecai would never like Ja Rule f*** no he picked up that beef too and make brisket before the show. Now here I sit at the edge of the world, 9th and D Street on the track and yes I'm not a prostitute we got trains that roll around back and forth from here to #Adrianskick back. So Modesto holla if you hear me and maybe just maybe more than George Lucas will put us on the map, some pretty sure absolute certainty is the absolute right and prerogative of God. And he's already cornered the market and traded places with prosperity abundance, majesty and honor, Glory, Grace and a whole bunch of things that appear to have been done by Dahmer bloody bottom shod. And yes I don't joke and I never kid not never. Yes cuz tricks ain't for them it's for mother f****** sprinkler and squirting weather. I have a short c chord rather than the giant no rather than a giant Pink beautifully braided Android cord this one takes a c everything else I have takes an Android so I'm looking right now for the sidebar that I just created in the footnote that's going to have Eminem paranoid. However I do have some friendly free advice that I don't usually share if it was unsolicited and try not to disrespect Narcotics Anonymous for no reason not in the air yes cuz we don't give unsolicited advice and RecDeliverance7777 EMINEM WIKI
I don't know if you've ever been a fiend I don't know if you've ever done anything dirty instead of clean I don't know if you've been m************ green I don't know if you know where Christian Park is I don't know if you're homely pretty sure you're not homie I seen your little clean cut unless you get a rough ass beard or 5:00 you know shower Shadow on your butt not a shower no there's no curtain here she will not opening things up for you there for the mirror yeah he didn't see that girl climb out the f****** TV on ring too s*** that was f****** weird creeped me the f*** out all f****** hell and back so guess what I got something new for next year my soul is what you see in your mind and it's rising up out of swim fans pool and it looks like Gomer Pyle with a f****** shadowed expression on his face and he's starting at demonic drool this m************ crawling along and guess what's right above them on the roof ceiling the chick from The Grudge baby she's f****** growling and her hair is reaching so I'm kneeling and I get on my knees to pray Lolo female should die a donate instead of a don't I cuz it still work like that God says yes so I'll keep it for today yes cuz tomorrow is sufficient with its own problems so I don't have to even look that far and I'm pretty sure that I've already planned out what's going to happen for the next two years six days 13 hours and 12 eons I've already been to the stars. And so yet and again and the tapping became a rapping and my chamber door flew open and I realized at that moment that the key behind his eye in the movie was mother f****** the one for the door that should never be open and the one for the door that should never be shut is the same key in and true but I got a flash drive that says it has the sword of Azeroth downloaded on it and I got it from Jerry in accounting wheres illidan. EXc ecstatic semantic, tremajante, rebelde, rebelde, rebelde, problematic. I'm not really sure why it came out like that or why it was written down as such yes this paper seems to be perked up with his ears and then scribbling himself talking about I just touched yeah contact made first so he Fosters my mother pretty sure I'm walking on multiple universes yeah I ate everyone's first born brother Christopher Reeves uses fetuses to fly again so why can I fly as a fetus be better than a flying pig on Sundays s*** man let's talk about the m************ bacon between us Epic Meal Time Ray Williams Johnson Snoop Dogg Katt Williams yeah somebody named John Compton somebody named Jeffrey Watts somebody named Michael Florin Road yes right off of Rancho Murieta yeah for it's lurking lots.

He said only the penitent man will pass. And I broke that down phonetically to mean the penny tent man. If you separate myself and keeping myself holy your ass is like penny with a cheeto on your hair it might be a little moldy. You might find yourself on the friends you might be a dangerous outlier on the surface you might have the incorrect electron configuration you might be part of m************ Bizarro circus so I'm pretty sure I ain't burning because I've been jacking off with gasoline mixed with antifreeze I know I'm burning because we are tears in the Hellfire living in the lions mouth without fear, no lie no delusion, your visions just cleared, at least you are in your constituents sights your absolutely right that every tongue shall confess and every knee shall bow so guess what you look like a cinnamon graham cracker somehow guess what honey made please. Did you ever wonder why I said he ate locusts and wild honey and he's crying in the wilderness that he hadn't yet found the Juniper he was looking for so he had to go find somebody named Thriller and Skrillex. So I don't use Fruity Loops I don't lose to reasons, I don't f*** with DJ's Pro Tools or anything called Four Seasons. Ableton Live is what I f**** with and it's from my maker and my lyrics are screaming out from the grave with blood on their f****** teeth talking about I'm the vampire cleaner s*** man who you think taught death stealing to her and my Revolution is under the world hey hey so next time you f****** look up remember that you got hit with that tgri green ooze and turned into a personal computer yeah now we call you Eminem Headroom instead of Max for a commercial and we switched your ass from Pepsi to Coke so you didn't have to do anything so versatile yeah subversively controversial because guess what I would never put you in the same realm or category with Johnson & Johnson cuz you're talking just fine and you get the girls way better oh. So anyways I had this feeling this thought this gift this you know sudden Epiphany like a starting line realization. Starting line realization is what I got instead of startling realization I'm pretty sure that Tink Tink is responsible for that s*** he's about to shock a nation yeah f****** hooked the electrical cord up from the f****** Clock Tower to his f****** his his legs instead of the car all you do is hit 88 f****** miles per hour he would have disappeared and become the next star this ass mother f****** saw a vision of a lightning bolt and a guy named powder he got a little scared toward the end so it Sparks started f****** screaming louder.

This s*** ain't a flatliner I ain't a tail from the Crypt I ain't mother f****** found on HBO and I'm never found without my trip and my trip doesn't drop right away it lifts itself for quite a while and at some point it gets to the top of its own Mountain and turns around says service with a smile and that mother f****** falls back down the fountain finally stimulated so like a big dog a big God girl s*** man Eminem's head just disintegrated and I'm pretty sure there's a blue gusher commercial that's going to say rest in peace Marshall Shady and slim wives matter so mother f****** get your Beats from gravy. Cuz that no Ruto Japanese dark synth that nindo beats that gravy killer yeah gravy Beach is awesome I keep wrapping that s*** over and over again yeah and help I'm in a nutshell I just found them Powers with Austin and so here we go lyrical f****** Mastermind the genie said you never even hope that you would find one that would f****** revisit and reignite all the fires in the m************ forges it would be throwing up a hashtag for my gang sign I just put that s*** on instagram and my mother f****** telegram never comes up short so I like you like you like me and a mother f****** found me Huggle for sport so I guess I got invited to one of them little games we play yellow and black f****** splattered on my screen and don't you think that if Western Union really wanted to take over the world wouldn't they create apps for social media and then just f****** represent their brain maybe who knows what does Wu stand for anyways it's not Western Union it's talking about in his script it's probably yeah Wrigley Field holy s*** no yeah it's the Wright brothers that you stick on the edge of town on Southwest Corner yeah trying to find its own drown yeah it doesn't look for sound anymore cuz it's tired of hearing what it's been hearing I'm not m************ anywhere with the force is blocking my view of the mountain so the trees salute me and m************ Crown me pimp the mountain. Yeah cuz I'm pretty sure if I speak with Kat Williams voice you can't transcribe that properly to express some Eminem exactly how perfectly I sound and I have a contention sir yeah I liked it the one that Jacob had with his mother f****** self Israel or with God that gave him his name for certain are you searching again it's a shame it really is I violated my own world and see how this woman not that you care cuz I know you don't answer fans so I'm not a fan here yeah if you listen to swarm Alpha and Omega you'll hear exactly who the f*** you're talking to and you don't know who you're f****** with so guess what Sega I Am.

Although I've morning and I was sick we lived until 9:00 but that store is on the map now cuz my Google map says I'm a level 8 tour guide and it's fine although I can't get into my Google Maps I can't get into my Gmail account because my comcast.net that should have let me in the back door Tapped Out without a phone is like yeah the fountain at the edge of the mountain and it hasn't quite squirted yet cuz nobody's stimulated the right spot nobody went and got MacGyver or Indiana Jones nobody paid their respects. He said only the penitent man will pass. And I broke that down phonetically to mean the penny tent man. If you separate myself and keeping myself holy your ass is like penny with a cheat on your hair it might be a little moldy. You might find yourself on the friends you might be a dangerous outlier on the surface you might have the incorrect electron configuration you might be part of m************ Bizarro circus so I'm pretty sure I ain't burning because I've been jacking off of gasoline mix with antifreeze I know I'm burning because we are tears in the Hellfire living a lion and illusion at least you are in your constituents might be that says everybody every tongue shall confess and every knee shall bow so guess what you look like a cinnamon graham cracker somehow guess what honey made please. Did you ever wonder why I said he ate locusts and wild honey and he's crying in the wilderness that he hadn't yet found the Juniper he was looking for so he had to go find somebody named Thriller and Skrillex. So I don't use Fruity Loops I don't lose to reasons, I don't f*** with DJ's Pro Tools or anything called Four Seasons. Ableton Live is what I f**** with and it's from my maker and my lyrics are screaming out from the grave with blood on their f****** teeth talking about I'm the vampire cleaner s*** man who you think taught death stealing to her and my Revolution is under the world hey hey so next time you f****** look up remember that you got hit with that tgri green ooze and turned into a personal computer yeah now we call you Eminem Headroom instead of Max for a commercial and we switched your ass from Pepsi to Coke so you didn't have to do anything so versatile yeah subversely controversial because guess what I would never put you in the same realm or category with Johnson & Johnson cuz you're talking just fine and you get the girls way better oh. So anyways I had this feeling this thought this gift this you know sudden Epiphany like a starting line realization. Starting line realization is what I got instead of startling realization I'm pretty sure that Tink Tink is responsible for that s*** he's about to shock a nation yeah f****** hooked the electrical cord up from the f****** Clock Tower to his f****** his his legs instead of the car all you do is hit 88 f****** miles per hour he would have disappeared and become the next star this ass mother f****** saw a vision of a lightning bolt and a guy named powder he got a little scared toward the end so it Sparks started f****** screaming louder. Pretty sure all you mean there's no sign up guys all okay well I'll go back out to the race yeah cuz I'm pretty sure I'm going to beat them at least in the city and so he went back to race it's been back boomerangs were traded for f****** gatlings and so every time he pulled the Cherry f****** lifted himself off the floor like Criss Angel and mother f****** showed all the shower rings. This s*** ain't a flatliner I ain't a tail from the Crypt I ain't mother f****** found on HBO and I'm never found without my trip and my trip doesn't drop right away it lifts itself for quite a while and at some point it gets to the top of its own Mountain and turns around says service with a smile and that mother f****** falls back down the fountain finally stimulated so like a big dog a big God girl s*** man Eminem's head just disintegrated and I'm pretty sure there's a blue gusher commercial that's going to say rest in peace Marshall Shady and slim wives matter so mother f****** get your Beats from gravy. Cuz that no Ruto Japanese dark synth that nindo beats that gravy killer yeah gravy Beach is awesome I keep wrapping that s*** over and over again yeah and help I'm in a nutshell I just found them Powers with Austin and so here we go lyrical f****** Mastermind the genie said you never even hope that you would find one that would f****** revisit and reignite all the fires in the m************ forges it would be throwing up a hashtag for my gang sign I just put that s*** on insty and my mother f****** telegram never comes up short so I like you like you like me and a mother f****** found me Huggle for sport so I guess I got invited to one of them little games we play yellow and black f****** splattered on my screen and don't you think that if Western Union really wanted to take over the world wouldn't they create apps for social media and then just f****** represent their brain maybe who knows what does Wu stand for anyways it's not Western Union it's talking about in his script it's probably yeah Wrigley Field holy s*** no yeah it's the Wright brothers that you stick on the edge of town on Southwest Corner yeah trying to find its own drown yeah it doesn't look for sound anymore cuz it's tired of hearing what it's been hearing I'm not m************ anywhere with the force is blocking my view of the mountain so the trees salute me and m************ Crown me pimp the mountain. Yeah cuz I'm pretty sure if I speak with Kat Williams voice you can't transcribe that properly to express some Eminem exactly how perfectly I sound and I have a contention sir yeah I liked it the one that Jacob had with his mother f****** self Israel or with God that gave him his name for certain are you searching again it's a shame it really is I violated my own world and see how this woman not that you care cuz I know you don't answer fans so I'm not a fan here yeah if you listen to swarm Alpha and Omega you'll hear exactly who the f*** you're talking to and you don't know who you're f****** with so guess what Sega. Just FYI this wasn't scripted and I haven't practiced this this is not really a whole bunch of clips that I've had in my f****** Consciousness or my spirit and soul and I sampled them all you know for some assistance I didn't give you anything that I used to ever needed any assistance cuz God brought it in the hour I needed it like he said he would yeah without resistance and it meant none cuz the futility in this f****** episode got the entire species 8472 in the Dominion on the Run I'm pretty sure the Wormhole just opened and I am the Paw race f****** God so here we go again JJ Abrams beat the s*** out of Skywalker and I'm not a MOG hello f****** l did you know that I recoined LOL into a hashtag completely spelled out three letter laugh all lowercase to make that s*** even more derivatively non-descript and not change a thing about it except for its spelling and now you have to wonder and ask yourself this smile and wave voice smiling wave is there I'm madagascarian order or did they call it a Madagascar I'm pretty sure this is the beginning of a spiritual disorder yeah I'm out casting not my pole not my line not my s*** and not my Shuffle I'm dancing all over them with EDM in the background yeah they're going to have to put a feat on my muzzle. So here's the thing Em I don't need an answer or response don't equip I don't need a three letter left in return and I don't need to be in sconced. I'm not handsome enough to require a handout or even receive one usually unless God shows up first pays the path I don't do s*** for bribes are you Siri or for no reason everything I do has its own f****** fuel it's on gas so I promise you right now no I don't cuz I take no off before God or man all I'm doing is taking off my sandal and handing it to you cuz I want the take over you you know Birthright and your rights to the land the land that she's allotted the land that you've been giving to land that nobody even thought to reserve a 10th part of for God when he showed up nobody can try to help his children. Why the f*** is the ASPCA commercial so f***** depressing and f****** horrible. That's a rhetorical f****** question though yeah some mechanical yeah the lyrical the Lord tell her mix with an oracle lot just came up with that win now no just then when you missed it just now when Wayne South s*** Samuel said in the desert nobody even remembered he was in that movie yeah I ain't a buzzer I'm a I'm a crescent shaded pervert hahaha. You want to know the Crescent shade is it's called righteousness. What's up and I dropped something in there yep my cigarette I got to find Jacob too. I just realized that I left my backpack unattended by all the people that may or may not have sticky fingers and I didn't realize it because I was talking to you Eminem rather than remembering that I got Ghostbusters for f****** fish sticks instead of fingers and so I want you to say and repeat after me please if you would do this like a monster in your mirror I like pudding fish sticks in my mouth and then chin Butters three times turning around and open your eyes and man bear pig will climb out and eat you and then f****** use your eyes oh f***. And let me see if I can move things and it's gone let me try it and it's gone that's what just happened fortunately the homie snatched it up when he saw it gave it to the front desk so I'm about to reclaim my s*** because there was a good mother f***** that was around or at least somebody I treated righteously for most of our interactions. And yes I am tooting a horn yeah it's a Ram's Horn is freaking precise baby a s*** hits the walls after seventh time turn out the lights and some lights out Candlestick and I'm the holder and the flame you look up The Beatles illustration book from back in the day you'll see the candle man melting while he's crying and pain. Marilyn Monroe is not the Candle in the Wind The Candle in the Wind Is Me so you better get that s*** right on f****** paper baby yeah cuz I got the wisdom knowledge to the at least what Solomon had in part if you get with that I don't invalidate one word not a daughter until first start not even wearing a starter hat. So this s*** ain't baby your daddy shark man this s*** is the f****** stage of your life baby I don't have a hot tub time machine I got a pornstar jacuzzi. Amen.
