EMINEM LYRICS - Backstabber

"Backstabber"



[Police voice:]

Attention all units, attention all units

We have an All Points Bulletin out on a man with green hair

I repeat, we have an APB on a man with green hair

He's armed with a knife, I repeat, he's armed with a knife

Proceed with caution, watch your back fella's

He could be coming at your girlfriend next



[Verse 1:]

There's a joker on the loose from the psychiatric ward

His face is up on the bulletin board with a reward

He'll stab you with a sword don't be fooled by his charm

He's probably armed with intent to do bodily harm

Ring the alarm, look for a man with green hair

Check at your girl's house, he was last seen there

He's has a mean stare but usually crack's jokes

Good luck on your mission and guard your backs folks



[Chorus:]

I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Stay away from him he ain't no good!



[Verse 2:]

We got the walkie-talkies to keep us all informed

Suited up head to toe in detective uniforms

Our unit storms in, we split the ghetto in sectors

Locking down every block and put up metal detectors

Protectors and be sure that you stand close

Watch each others backs and guard your command post

And most of all be advised that he's wise

He could be disguised as one of your very own guys



[Chorus:]

I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Stay away from him he ain't no good!



[Verse 3:]

I'm on a solo mission to find him personally

To settle the score and beat then him mercifully

For what he first did to me

It's sure to be the last

Following footprints with a magnifying glass

To drag his lying ass back to his padded cell

I'm mad as hell, on the trail of the tattle tail

I heard a yell the voice sounded familiar

"Give me your girlfriend or I'm gonna kill ya"



[Chorus:]

I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Stay away from him he ain't no good!



[Verse 4:]

I followed the voice that led down a flight of steps

Sneezing at dust, and swinging at the spider-webs

Inside the depths of his basement

I taste lint in my mouth, then the lights in the place went!

I saw my life flash in front of my eyes

I felt a butcher knife slash at one of my thighs

None of my guys knew where I'm at I was doomed

Then I remembered the flashlight in my costume



[Chorus:]

I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Stay away from him he ain't no good!



[Verse 5:]

Dealing with backstabber's there was one thing I learned

They're only powerful when you got your back turned

I yearned for the day that we finally met again

So I can give him a taste of his own medicine

He shed his skin, then he promised to come clean

I took his butcher knife and jabbed it into his spleen

Cut him at the seam then dragged the fella home

Beating him over the head with the telephone



[Police voice:]

Attention all cars, attention all cars

Unit 313 has apprehended the suspect

He's going back to the crazy home, I repeat

He's going back to the crazy home, how about that?



[Chorus:]

I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Stay away from him he ain't no good!

I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Stay away from him he ain't no good!

I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber

Why I oughtta

Stay away from him he ain't no good!
