[Eminem - Who Knew lyrics]

(I never knew I, knew I, knew I)
(I never knew I, knew I, knew I) Mic check
One-two (I never knew I, knew I
Knew I) Who woulda knew?
(I never knew I, knew I
Knew I) Who woulda known?
(I never knew I, knew I
Knew I) Fuck would of thought?
(I never knew I, knew I
Knew I) Motherfucker comes out
(I never knew I, knew I
Knew I) Sells a couple of million records
(I never knew I, knew I
Knew I) And these motherfuckers
Hit the ceiling (I never knew I)

I don't do Black music
I don't do white music (Nope)
I make fight music for high school kids
I put lives at risk when I drive like this
I put wives at risk with a knife like this
(Ah, Shit)
You probably think I'm in your tape deck now
I'm in the backseat of your truck
With duct tape stretched out
Ducked the fuck way down
Waitin' to straight jump out
Put it over your mouth
And grab you by the face what now?
Oh, you want me to watch my mouth? How?
Take my fuckin' eyeballs out
And turn 'em around? (Look)
I'll burn your fuckin' house down
Circle around and hit the hydrant
So you can't put your burnin' furniture out
(Oh my God! Oh my God)
I'm sorry, there must be a mix-up
You want me to fix up lyrics while
Our president gets his dick sucked?
Fuck that! Take drugs, rape sluts
Make fun of gay clubs, men who wear make-up
Get aware, wake up, get a sense of humor
Quit tryin' to censor music
This is for your kid's amusement (The kids)
But don't blame me when little Eric
Jumps off of the terrace
You shoulda been watchin' him
Apparently you ain't parents

‘Cause I never knew I
Knew I would get this big
I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid
I never knew I'd get him to slit his wrist
I never knew I'd get him to hit this bitch
I never knew I, knew I would get this big
I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid
I never knew I'd get him to slit his wrist
I never knew I'd get him to hit this bitch

So who's bringin' the guns in this country?
(Hm?) i couldn't sneak a plastic pellet gun
Through customs over in London
And last week I seen
This Schwarzenegger movie
Where he's shootin' all sorts of
These motherfuckers with a Uzi
I see these three little kids
Up in the front row
Screaming, "Go!" with their
Seventeen-year-old uncle i'm like
Guidance?! Ain't they got the same moms
And dads who got mad when I
Asked if they liked violence?
And told me that my tape taught 'em to swear?
What about the make-up you allow
Your twelve-year-old daughter to wear? (Hm?)
So tell me that your son
Doesn't know any cuss words
When his bus driver's screamin' at him
Fuckin' him up worse (Go sit the fuck down
You little fucking prick)
And "fuck" was the first word I ever learned
Up in the third grade
Flippin' the gym teacher the bird (Look)
So read up 'bout how I used to get beat up
Peed on, be on free lunch and changed
School every three months
My life's like kind of what my wife's like
(What?) fucked up after I beat her
Fuckin' ass every night: Ike
So how much easier would life be if nineteen
Million motherfuckers grew to be
Just like me?

‘Cause I never knew I
Knew I would get this big
I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid
I never knew I'd get him to slit his wrist
I never knew I'd get him to hit this bitch
I never knew I, knew I would get this big
I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid
I never knew I'd get him to slit his wrist
I never knew I'd get him to hit this bitch

I never knew I
Knew I'd have a new house or a new car
A couple years ago
I was more poorer than you are
I don't got that bad of a mouth, do I?
Fuck! Shit! Ass! Bitch!
Cunt! Shooby-de doo-wop! (Oops)
Skibbedy-be-bop, a Christopher Reeves
Sonny Bono, skis
Horses and hittin' some trees (Hey)
How many retards'll listen to me
And run-up in the school shootin' when
They're pissed at a tea-
-cher? Her? Him? Is it you? Is it them?
"Wasn't me, Slim Shady said to do it again!"
Damn, how much damage can you do with a pen?
Man, I'm just as fucked up as you woulda been
If you woulda been in my shoes
Who woulda thought
Slim Shady would be somethin'
That you woulda bought?
That woulda made you get a gun
And shoot at a cop i just said it
I ain't know if you'd do it or not

‘Cause I never knew I
Knew I would get this big
I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid
I never knew I'd get him to slit his wrist
I never knew I'd get him to hit this bitch
I never knew I, knew I would get this big
I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid
I never knew I'd get him to slit his wrist
I never knew I'd get him to hit this bitch

How the fuck was I supposed to know?
