Role Model

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Ok, I'm going to attempt to drown myself

You can try this at home

You can be just like me

(Mic check 1, 2, we recording?)

I'm cancerous, and when I diss you wouldn't wanna answer this

And if ya responded back with a battle rap you wrote for canibus

I'd strangle you to death, then choke you again (ack)

Then broke your fucking legs till' your

Bones poke through your skin (aaww)

You beef with me, I'm-a even the score equally

Take on Jerry Springer and beat your ass legally

I get you blunted off of funny home grown

'Cause when I smoke out I hit the trees harder than sonny bono (oh no!)

And if I said I never did drugs, that would mean I lie

And get fucked more that the president does!

Hillary Clinton tried to slap me and call me a pervert

I ripped his fucking tonsils out and fed her sherbert (bitch)

My nerves hurt, lately I'm on edge

Grabbed vanilla ice and ripped out his blonde dreads (fuck)

Every girl I ever went out with was going lez'

Follow me and do excactly like the song says

Smoke weed, take pills, drop outta school, kill people and drink

Jump behind wheel like it was still legal

I'm dumb enough to walk in a store and steal

So I'm dumb enough to ask a for date with Lauryn Hill

Some people only see that I'm white, ignoring skill

'Cause' I stand out like a green hat with an orange bill

But I don't get pissed, ya'll don't even see through the mist

How the fuck can I be white, I don't even exist?

I get a clean shave, bath, go to a rave, die from an overdose

And dig myself up out of my grave

My middle finger won't go down, how do I wave?

And this is how I'm supposed to teach kids how to behave!?

Now follow me and do excactly what you see

Don't you wanna grow up to be just like me?

I slap women, and eat shrooms then OD

Now don't you wanna grow up to be just like me

Me and Marcus Allen went over to see Nicole

When we heard a knock on the door (knock)

Must've been Ron Gold'

Jumped behind the door, put the orgy on hold

Killed 'em both and smeared blood on white bronco (we did it!)

My mind won'y work and my spine don't jerk

I slapped Garth Brooks out of his rhinestone shirt

I'm not a player just an I'll rhyme sayer

That'll spray an aerosol can up at the ozone layer (pssh)

My rap style's warped, I'm runnin out the morgue

Witcha dead grandmother's corpse to throw it on your porch (scream)

Jumped in a Chickenhawk cartoon with a cape on

And beat up foghorn leghorn with an acorn

I'm about as normal as Norman Baites, with deformative traits

A premature birth that was four minutes late

Mother, are you there? I love you

I never meant to hit you

On the head with that shovel (evil laugh)

Will someone please explain to my

Brains that I just severed a main vein

With a chainsaw and I'm in pain?

I take a breather and sighed

Either I'm high, or I'm nuts

'Cause if you ain't tiltin this room, neither am I

So when you see your mom with a thermometer shoved in her ass

Then it probably is obvious I got it on with her

Cause when I drop this solo shit it's over with

I bought Cage's tape, opened it, and dubbed over it

I came to a club drunk and with a fake ID

Don't you wanna grow up to be just like me?

I've been with 10 women who got HIV

Now don't you wanna grow up to be just like me?

I got genital warts and it burns when I pee

Now don't you wanna grow up to be just like me?

I tie a rope around my penis and jump from a tree

You probably wanna grow up the just like me?
