1
Dear Slim,
2
My favorite icon put the bong and the knife down
3
I'm sick of the songs about strapping your mom and your ex-wife down
4
To a nuclear bomb and dropping them on Saddam
5
Killing all the muses you use in almost all of your songs
6
Except those songs about Slim the Hip-Hoppian God
7
They make it seem you don't respect rappers like Biggie and Pac
8
Who if it weren't for them you be out of a job
9
Or flipping burgers with Ronald McDonald and not leading your mob
10
But the Blob's offensive, run and jumping the fences
11
And burying politicians in pop culture trenches
12
Dude, have some humility, oops responsibility, oops accountability, oops I said humility
13
Your face has covered worse magazines
14
than the artists and politicians you've mocked on every CD release
15
Ooh, how cool; you've proved you lack tact in your songs
16
In fact, you've grown up to act just like your mom
17
If y'all represent the truth and America's youth
18
Act like a leader we could actually use
19
You're a celebrity now, oh no, look what you did
20
You're America's role model but deny that you're it
21
Come on, come on, let's stand together as one
22
I ain't yelling about selling my soul, going to hell and back for platinum
23
Or gold to show the world is a gullible globe
24
Although, I can't respect the coalition of politicians signing petitions
25
Fearing Eminem's mission to bitch
26
When it's his right to taunt if he wants to fight
27
Even if you're frightened of what he might want to write
28
You're sworn to defend men, who offend men
29
Just because you believe in the first amendment
30
Even if it's illogical angst and vengeance
31
So defend your senses, but cleanse your dirty lenses
32
The law's written to both conservatives and leftists
33
It says Vanilla Ice Preservatives can be sexist
34
If y'all represent the truth and America's youth
35
Act like the leaders we could actually use
36
You're politicians now, oh no, look what you did
37
You're America's role models but deny art from our kids
38
Come on, come on, let's stand together as one
39
Censoring, the denial of actual words or factual things declared obscene
40
But molesting archdiocese, disease,
41
dead people in the streets from shooting sprees, epidemics
42
Paramedics clearing debris here and overseas aren't banned from TV
43
But yell shit, goddamn, or fuck hear three individual bleeps
44
A word's a word, let it be heard and learned
45
It's not the individual words but the order that hurts
46
Come on, come on, let's stand together as one
47
Come on, come on, stop threatening to censor our thoughts
48
And you'll get the response you want from now on
49
Come on, come on
