Eminem

Girl, you give me writer's block

I'm at a loss for words

My mind's as lost as yours

I rack my brain but still no thoughts emerge

Never seen no ass as large as yours, how much that cost?

That's what I call a Roethlisberger

You drive me bonkers, I’m about to get my swerve on for sure

Thought I was pimpin' untill I felt like Nas, the first-

Date because I think I gave you power when I gave you flowers

And I bought us a box of chocolates, no lozenges or cough drops or syrups

Probably should have never let me call that job of yours

To talk to your boss and ask him if you can take off from work

Should have been one of the first signs to cause alert

Man we jumped in too fast, 'cause since then I can't be apart from her

'Cause nobody's body's awesomer - I lust it, and she loves me 'cause I'm popular, but

You know this ain't love

Oh, no, you know this ain't love

You know this ain't love

No, this ain't love

(What is it then?) It's desperation

She's lookin for Mr Right, wants me to be that guy to her

(It's desperation)

I can't even put up a fight, 'cause I give in at the sight of her

And here I go again

Eminem

You were obviously oblivious to me, I

Swore I was just invisible to you till I went to the lengths I did to meet you

'Cause you played so hard to get with me from the beginning

Now I'm in disbelief, I

Never knew that this could be such misery

'Cause now you see nothing but me, and I don't see nothing but you

And I'm about to flip 'cause we are Super Glued in

We're stuck to each other's hips and we can't do anything individually

Which is to cling on, scared to be alone

Can't specifically describe it, I just can't seem to give a reason that's definitive, just need you

Talking 'bout: I live and breathe you

And you pretend to be as mentally and physically addicted to me

As Wiz Khalifa is to reefer

Don't wanna be without you, don't wanna be with you neither, bitch

Put me in a situation in which it's both I wish to seek, 'cause this ain't

You know this ain't love

Oh, no, you know this ain't love

You know this ain't love

No, this ain't love

(What is it then?) It's desperation

She's lookin for Mr Right, wants me to be that guy to her

(It's desperation)

I can't even put up a fight, 'cause I give in at the sight of her

And here I go again

Eminem

Just want you to myself, don't wanna share you with no one else

What the fuck you whispering for? You get on my nerves, you make me sick

I think our relationship, it seems to be on the fritz

I mean, it's time that we just split and leave the games behind

Your frame of mind ain't the same as mine, I think

You need to finish developing a little more mentally too, get the picture?

That's a negative, Alicia, I will never give the Keys up

To the crib, ever again, no reason not even a gift certificate from Tiffany's

You better have an epiphany, slut, guess what? (what) delicia

I'm just mad it took the time it took me to discover

You been using me for loot like I used you for looks

Thought you was too good for me, huh?

Yeah Used to be my Carrie Underwood, I was your lumberjack

But I can't stomach this

I'm leaving you, I'm not coming back

She said: The fuck with that?

Where's my Louisville slugger at?

She grabbed that fuckin' bat and swung it at my head

I barely ducked and that's right when she came up with a kick to the nuts twice

Steel toe, girl probably could've put a 100 yard field goal through the uprights

You know this ain't love

Oh, no, you know this ain't love

You know this ain't love

No, this ain't love

(What is it then?) it's desperation

She's looking for Mr Right, wants me to be that guy to her

(It's desperation)

I can't even put up a fight, 'cause I give in at the sight of her

And here I go again (it's desperation)
