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
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'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad
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'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad
[Verse 1: Eminem (as Stan)]
Dear Slim, I wrote you, 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've 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 every day, 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 phat
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'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad
[Verse 2: 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 want to 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 blisterin' cold
For you, for 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 sayin' 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 with 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'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad
[Verse 3: 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 sendin' you, I hope you hear it
I'm in the car right now, I'm doin' 90 on the freeway
Hey, Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, you 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 drownin'
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 drownin'
Now it's too late, I'm on a thousand 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 loved 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—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 am 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'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad
[Verse 4: Eminem]
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', dawg, come on, how fucked up is you?
You got some issues, Stan, I think you need some counselin'
To help your ass from bouncin' 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 it, his name was—it was you
[Outro]
Damn…
nestala hladna moja čaj,
Pitam se zašto sam izašla iz kreveta na sve
U jutro kiša oblaci do mog prozora
A ja ne vidim uopće
A čak i ako sam mogao da bi sve bilo sivo
Ali tvoja slika na mom zidu
To me podsjeća da to nije tako loše, to nije tako loše
nestala hladna moja čaj,
Pitam se zašto sam izašla iz kreveta na sve
U jutro kiša oblaci do mog prozora
A ja ne vidim uopće
A čak i ako sam mogao da bi sve bilo sivo
Ali tvoja slika na mom zidu
To me podsjeća da to nije tako loše, to nije tako loše
[Redak 1: Eminem (kao Stan)]
Dragi vitak, ti sam napisao, ali još uvijek nije Callin'
Ostavio sam mobitel, moj pager i moj kućni telefon na dnu
Sam poslao dva pisma natrag u jesen, morate not've dobio „em
Vjerojatno je problem u pošti ili Nešto
Ponekad sam piskarati adrese previše neuredan kad sam točkica „em
No, bilo kako, jebi ga, što je bilo, čovječe? Kako je tvoja kći?
Moja djevojka je trudna previše, ja sam kažeš da je otac
Ako imam kćer, pogodite što ju Ja sam nazvati?
Ja sam ime joj je Bonnie
Čitao sam o svom ujaku Ronnie previše, žao mi je
Imao sam prijatelja ubio zbog nekog kuja koja ga nije htjela
Znam da vjerojatno čuti svaki dan, ali ja sam tvoj najveći fan
Čak sam dobio podzemni sranje koje si učinio s Skam
Dobio sam punu sobu svojih plakata i svoje slike, čovjek
Sam se kao govno što je učinio s Rawkus previše, to sranje je phat
Uglavnom, nadam se da se ovo, čovječe, udario me natrag
Samo za razgovor, poštovanjem, vaš najveći fan, ovo je Stan
[Hor: Dido]
nestala hladna moja čaj,

[Redak 2: Eminem (kao Stan)]
Dragi Slim, još uvijek se ne zove ili napisao, nadam se da imate priliku
Nisam lud, samo mislim da je sjebano da ne odgovoriti navijača
Ako ne želi razgovarati sa mnom van koncerta, te ne moraju
Ali ti coulda potpisao autogram za Mateju
To je moj mali brat, čovjek, on je samo šest godina
Čekali smo u blisterin' hladnoće
Za vas, za četiri sata, a vi samo ne rekao
To je prilično usrano, čovječe, ti si kao i njegov jebeni idol
On želi biti poput tebe, čovječe, on te voli više od mene
I nije da ludi, iako ja baš ne sviđa kost lagao
Sjećaš li se kad smo se susreli u Denveru?
Rekao si da sam te pisati, te će pisati natrag
Vidi, ja sam baš kao i ti na neki način: Nisam znao moj otac ni
On se koristi za uvijek počinilo moje majke i tukao
Mogu se odnositi na ono što sayin' u svojim pjesmama
Dakle, kada sam jedan dan usran, ja proklizavaju i staviti ih na
Jer ja stvarno ne dobio govno ostalo
Tako to sranje pomaže kad sam depresivan
Čak sam dobio tetovažu sa svojim imenom preko prsa
Ponekad sam čak i rezati sebe da vidi koliko krvari
To je poput adrenalina, bol je takva iznenadna navala za mene
Vidi, sve što kažem je pravi, a ja vas poštujem jer ti to reći
Moja djevojka je ljubomorna jer sam razgovarati s vama 24/7
Ali ona te ne znam kao ti znam, tanak, nitko ne
Ona ne zna kako je bilo za ljude poput nas growin' up
Moraš me zvati, čovječe, ja ću biti najveći navijač ćete ikada izgubiti
S poštovanjem, Stan-P.S. Trebamo biti zajedno previše
[Hor: Dido]
nestala hladna moja čaj,

[Redak 3: Eminem (kao Stan)]
Poštovani g ja sam suviše dobar za poziv ili pisati-My-Fans
To će biti posljednji paket koji sam ikada poslati guzicu
Prošlo je šest mjeseci, a još uvijek nije riječ-ja to ne zaslužuju?
Znam da je dobio moj posljednja dva slova, napisao sam adrese na „em Perfect
Dakle, ovo je moja kazeta sam Sendin' ti, nadam se da to čujem
Ja sam u autu upravo sada, ja sam radiš 90 na autoputu
Hej, vitak, pio sam petinu votke, da me se usudio voziti?
Znate pjesmu Phil Collins, „u zraku noći”
O tom tipu koji coulda spasio onaj drugi od drownin'
Ali nije, onda je Phil sve to vidio, onda u emisiji on ga je našao?
To je nekako kako je to: što coulda me spasio od drownin'
Sada je prekasno, ja sam na tisuću downers sad ja sam pospan
I sve što sam želio je loša pismo ili poziv
Nadam se da znaš da ripped sve svoje slike sa zida
Voljela sam te, vitak, mi coulda zajedno razmisliti o tome!
Možete ga uništio sad, nadam se da ne mogu spavati i sanjaš o tome
A kad san Nadam se da ne mogu spavati i vrištati o tome
Nadam se da vam savjest jede kod vas i ne može disati bez mene
Vidi, Slim-šuti, kučko! Ja pokušavam za razgovor
Hej, vitak, to je moja djevojka Screamin' u prtljažniku
Ali nisam prerezao joj grlo, samo sam joj vezao gore-vidjeti? Nisam kao ti
Jer, ako ona guši ona će patiti više i onda će ona umrijeti
Pa, moram ići, ja sam skoro na mostu sada
Oh, sranje, zaboravio sam-kako sam trebao poslati ovu govno ?!
[Hor: Dido]
nestala hladna moja čaj,

[Redak 4: Eminem]
Dragi Stan, mislio sam da ti napisati prije, ali sam bio zauzet
Rekao si da ti je djevojka trudna sada, koliko zajedno je ona?
Gle, ja sam stvarno polaskana što bi nazvali svoju kćer da
I ovdje je autogram za tvog brata; Ja to napisao na Starter kapu
Žao mi je nisam vas vidjeti na izložbi, ja sigurno ste propustili
Nemojte misliti da je to učinio sranje namjerno samo da vas diss
Ali što je ovo sranje što si rekao o želite smanjiti svoje zapešća previše?
Kažem to sranje samo clownin' Dawg, hajde, koliko je sjebano je li?
Imaš neka pitanja, Stan, mislim da je potrebna neka counselin'
Da bi guzicu od bouncin' od zidova kada se spustite neki
A što je ovo sranje o nama trebali biti zajedno?
Taj tip shit'll make me ne žele da upoznaju jedni druge
Stvarno mislim da i vaša djevojka treba međusobno
Ili možda samo trebate je bolje liječiti
Nadam se da ste dobili pročitati ovo pismo, samo se nadam da si to ti dođe na vrijeme
Prije nego što se ozlijedio, mislim da ćete biti radiš sasvim u redu
Ako se malo opustiti, drago mi je da vas potaknuti, ali Stana
Zašto si tako ljuta? Pokušajte shvatiti da ja želim te kao ventilator
Ja samo ne želim da učinite nešto ludo sranje
Vidio sam ovu jednu sranje na vijestima par tjedana da me bolesno
Neki Dude bio pijan i vozio njegov automobil preko mosta
I imao je svoju djevojku u prtljažniku, a ona je bila trudna s njegovim djetetom
A u autu su našli traku, ali nije rekao tko je bio na
Dođi da mislim o tome, njegovo ime je-to ti
[Završnu]
Proklet…
