Dear Slim Lyrics - Singles - Bloodbath

Dear Slim, 

My favorite icon put the bong and the knife down 

I'm sick of the songs about strapping your mom and your ex-wife down 

To a nuclear bomb and dropping them on Saddam 

Killing all the muses you use in almost all of your songs 

Except those songs about Slim the Hip-Hoppian God 

They make it seem you don't respect rappers like Biggie and Pac 

Who if it weren't for them you be out of a job 

Or flipping burgers with Ronald McDonald and not leading your mob 

But the Blob's offensive, run and jumping the fences 

And burying politicians in pop culture trenches 

Dude, have some humility, oops responsibility, oops accountability, oops I said humility 

Your face has covered worse magazines 

than the artists and politicians you've mocked on every CD release 

Ooh, how cool; you've proved you lack tact in your songs 

In fact, you've grown up to act just like your mom 

If y'all represent the truth and America's youth 

Act like a leader we could actually use 

You're a celebrity now, oh no, look what you did 

You're America's role model but deny that you're it 

Come on, come on, let's stand together as one 

I ain't yelling about selling my soul, going to hell and back for platinum 

Or gold to show the world is a gullible globe 

Although, I can't respect the coalition of politicians signing petitions 

Fearing Eminem's mission to bitch 

When it's his right to taunt if he wants to fight 

Even if you're frightened of what he might want to write 

You're sworn to defend men, who offend men 

Just because you believe in the first amendment 

Even if it's illogical angst and vengeance 

So defend your senses, but cleanse your dirty lenses 

The law's written to both conservatives and leftists 

It says Vanilla Ice Preservatives can be sexist 

If y'all represent the truth and America's youth 

Act like the leaders we could actually use 

You're politicians now, oh no, look what you did 

You're America's role models but deny art from our kids 

Come on, come on, let's stand together as one 

Censoring, the denial of actual words or factual things declared obscene 

But molesting archdiocese, disease, 

dead people in the streets from shooting sprees, epidemics 

Paramedics clearing debris here and overseas aren't banned from TV 

But yell shit, goddamn, or fuck hear three individual bleeps 

A word's a word, let it be heard and learned 

It's not the individual words but the order that hurts 

Come on, come on, let's stand together as one 

Come on, come on, stop threatening to censor our thoughts 

And you'll get the response you want from now on 

Come on, come on
