Chorus: Elton
2
My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I..
3
got out of bed at all
4
The morning rain clouds up my window..
5
and I can't see at all
6
And even if I could it'd all be gray,
7
but your picture on my wall
8
It reminds me, that it's not so bad,
9
it's not so bad..
10
[Eminem as 'Stan']
11
Dear Slim, I wrote but you still ain't callin
12
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
13
I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not-a got 'em
14
There probably was a problem at the post office or something
15
Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em
16
but anyways; f**k it, what's been up? Man how's your daughter?
17
My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm bout to be a father
18
If I have a daughter, guess what I'ma call her?
19
I'ma name her Bonnie
20
I read about your Uncle Ronnie too I'm sorry
21
I had a friend kill himself over some bitch who didn't want him
22
I know you probably hear this everyday, but I'm your biggest fan
23
I even got the underground shit that you did with Skam
24
I got a room full of your posters and your pictures man
25
I like the shit you did with Ruckus too, that shit was phat
26
Anyways, I hope you get this man, hit me back,
27
just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan
28
This is Stan
29
{Chorus: Elton}
30
[Eminem as 'Stan']
31
Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance
32
I ain't mad - I just think it's F**KED UP you don't answer fans
33
If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your concert
34
you didn't have to, but you coulda signed an autograph for Matthew
35
That's my little brother man, he's only six years old
36
We waited in the blistering cold for you,
37
four hours and you just said, "No."
38
That's pretty shitty man - you're like his f**king idol
39
He wants to be just like you man, he likes you more than I do
40
I ain't that mad though, I just don't like being lied to
41
Remember when we met in Denver - you said if I'd write you
42
you would write back - see I'm just like you in a way
43
I never knew my father neither;
44
he used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
45
I can relate to what you're saying in your songs
46
so when I have a shitty day, I drift away and put 'em on
47
cause I don't really got shit else so that shit helps when I'm depressed
48
I even got a tattoo with your name across the chest
49
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
50
It's like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
51
See everything you say is real, and I respect you 'cos you tell it
52
My girlfriend's jealous cause I talk about you 24/7
53
But she don't know you like I know you Slim, no one does
54
She don't know what it was like for people like us growin up
55
You gotta call me man, I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose
56
Sincerely yours, Stan -- P.S.
57
We should be together too
58
{Chorus: Elton}

Dear Mister-I'm-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans,
61
this'll be the last package I ever send your ass
62
It's been six months and still no word - I don't deserve it?
63
I know you got my last two letters;
64
I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect
65
So this is my cassette I'm sending you, I hope you hear it
66
I'm in the car right now, I'm doing 90 on the freeway
67
Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, you dare me to drive?
68
You know the song by Phil Collins, "In the Air of the Night"
69
about that guy who coulda saved that other guy from drowning
70
but didn't, then Phil saw it all, then at a show he found him?
71
That's kinda how this is, you coulda rescued me from drowning
72
Now it's too late - I'm on a 1000 downers now, I'm drowsy
73
and all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
74
I hope you know I ripped ALL of your pictures off the wall
75
I love you Slim, we coulda been together, think about it
76
You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it
77
And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you SCREAM about it
78
I hope your conscience EATS AT YOU and you can't BREATHE without me
79
See Slim; {*screaming*}
80
Shut up bitch! I'm trying to talk!
81
Hey Slim, that's my girlfriend screamin in the trunk
82
but I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain't like you
83
cause if she suffocates she'll suffer more, and then she'll die too
84
Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now
85
Oh shit, I forgot, how am I supposed to send this shit out?
86
{Chorus: Elton}
87
[Eminem]
88
Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner but I just been busy
89
You said your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she?
90
Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that
91
and here's an autograph for your brother,
92
I wrote it on the Starter cap
93
I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show, I musta missed you
94
Don't think I did that shit intentionally just to diss you
95
But what's this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists too?
96
I say that shit just clowning dog,
97
c'mon - how f**ked up is you?
98
You got some issues Stan, I think you need some counselling
99
to help your ass from bouncing off the walls when you get down some
100
And what's this shit about us meant to be together?
101
That type of shit'll make me not want us to meet each other
102
I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
103
or maybe you just need to treat her better
104
I hope you get to read this letter, I just hope it reaches you in time
105
before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin just fine
106
if you relax a little, I'm glad I inspire you but Stan
107
why are you so mad? Try to understand, that I do want you as a fan
108
I just don't want you to do some crazy shit
109
I seen this one shit on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick
110
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
111
and had his girlfriend in the trunk, and she was pregnant with his kid
112
and in the car they found a tape, but they didn't say who it was to
113
Come to think about, his name was.. it was you
114
Damn!
