    [Intro]

    02

    I don't understand

    03

    Why are you being so mean?

    04

    You're a mean, mean man

  2. 05

    [Chorus]

    06

    You're just jealous of me 'cause you, you just can't do what I do

    07

    So instead of just admitting it, you walk around and say

    08

    All kinds of really mean things about me

    09

    'Cause you're a meanie, a meanie

  3. 10

    But it's only 'cause you're just really jealous of me

    11

    'Cause I'm what you wanna be, so you just look like an idiot

    12

    When you say these mean things, 'cause it's too easy to see

    13

    You're really just a big weenie, big weenie

  4. 14

    [Verse 1]

    15

    Alright, listen, I need you to focus

    16

    I need you to go dig deep in your mind, this is important

    17

    We are going to perform an experiment of the sorts

    18

    I'm going to have to ask you to bear with me for a moment

  5. 19

    Now I need you to open your mind, your eyes, close 'em

    20

    You are now about to be placed under my hypnosis

    21

    For the next four and a half minutes, we are going to explore

    22

    Into your mind to find out why you're so fucking jealous

  6. 23

    Now why did they make yoo-hoo? Pippity-kaka-poo-poo

    24

    Psych, I'm kidding, I just wanted to see if you're still listening

    25

    Okay, now I need your undivided attention

    26

    Sir, I have a question, why do I always sense this undeniable tension?

    Block noteChallenges the target's public standing

    TargetBenzino

    MeaningWhat it means: In “Okay, now I need your undivided attention,” Eminem questions whether Benzino's attention, audience, or reputation reflects genuine respect. Why it was said: The song belongs to Eminem's public conflict with Benzino and The Source, which produced multiple response records in the early 2000s. Visibility can be mistaken for victory, so the artist recasts Benzino's recognition as temporary, manufactured, or disconnected from credibility.

    ContextThe song belongs to Eminem's public conflict with Benzino and The Source, which produced multiple response records in the early 2000s.

  7. 27

    From the moment that I enter into the room it gets all quiet and whispers

    28

    Whenever there's conversation, why am I always mentioned?

    29

    I've been dying to ask, it's been itching at me, is it just because...

  8. 30

    [Chorus]

    31

    You're just jealous of me 'cause you, you just can't do what I do

    32

    So instead of just admitting it, you walk around and say

    33

    All kinds of really mean things about me

    34

    'Cause you're a meanie, a meanie

  9. 35

    But it's only 'cause you're just really jealous of me

    36

    'Cause I'm what you wanna be, so you just look like an idiot

    37

    When you say these mean things, 'cause it's too easy to see

    38

    You're really just a big weenie, big weenie

    Alright now I (Shit), I just flubbed a line

    41

    I was going to say something extremely important

    42

    But I forgot who or what it was, I fucked up

    43

    Psych, I'm kidding again, you idiot, no, I didn't

    Block noteQuestions the target's judgment

    TargetBenzino

    MeaningWhat it means: In “Psych, I'm kidding again, you idiot, no, I didn't,” Eminem characterizes Benzino as unintelligent, careless, or unable to understand the situation being addressed. Why it was said: The song belongs to Eminem's public conflict with Benzino and The Source, which produced multiple response records in the early 2000s. The insult makes the target's decisions part of the evidence: a poor response can be framed not as strategy, but as proof that Benzino never understood the contest.

    That's just what you wanted to hear from me is that I fucked up, ain't it?

    But I can bust one take without looking at no paper

    46

    It doesn't take a bunch of takes or me to stand here in this booth all day

    47

    For me to say the truth, okay? You're drooling, you have tooth decay

    Block noteTurns the target into a visual punchline

    TargetBenzino

    MeaningWhat it means: In “For me to say the truth, okay? You're drooling, you have tooth decay,” Eminem reduces Benzino to an exaggerated physical caricature instead of engaging the target's preferred public image. Why it was said: The song belongs to Eminem's public conflict with Benzino and The Source, which produced multiple response records in the early 2000s. A visual insult is easy for an audience to remember and repeat; the goal is to make ridicule of Benzino travel beyond the song itself.

    "Marshall, I'm so jealous of you, please say you won't tell nobody

    53

    I'd be so embarrassed, I'm just absolutely terrified

    54

    That someone's gonna find out why I'm saying all these terrible

    55

    Evil and awful mean things, it's my own insecurities"

  14. 56

    [Chorus]

    57

    You're just jealous of me 'cause you, you just can't do what I do

    Alright, now we, we're going to conduct

    67

    That experiment that we were talking about earlier

    68

    Just to see what a frog looks like when it takes two hits of ecstasy

    69

    'Cause that's exactly what your eyes look like, wanna check to see?

    Here's a mirror, notice the resemblance here?

    71

    Wait, let me put these sunglasses on, now look in this mirror

    72

    How 'bout now? What do you have in common?

    73

    You're both green with envy and look like idiots with sunglasses on 'em

    You look like I sound like singing about weenies

    Multi-line diss block
    75

    Now take my weenie out of your mouth

    76

    This is between me and you, I know you're not happy

    77

    I know you'd much rather see me lying in the corner of a room somewhere crying

    Block noteSays the target's identity is borrowed

    TargetBenzino

    MeaningWhat it means: In “You look like I sound like singing about weenies,” Eminem presents Benzino's style or work as imitation rather than an original contribution. Why it was said: The song belongs to Eminem's public conflict with Benzino and The Source, which produced multiple response records in the early 2000s. The accusation strips Benzino of artistic ownership: success looks less impressive when the sound, image, or idea is framed as somebody else's first.

  19. 78

    Curled up in a ball, tweaked out of my mind, dying, there's no denying

    79

    That my weenie is much bigger than yours is

    80

    Mine is like sticking a banana between two oranges

    81

    Why are you even doing this to yourself? It's pointless

  20. 82

    Why do we have to keep on going through this? This is torturous

    83

    My point is this

    84

    That if you say mean things, your weenie will shrink

    85

    Now I forgot what the chorus is, you're just as...

  21. 86

    [Chorus]

    87

    You're just jealous of me 'cause you, you just can't do what I do

    88

    So instead of just admitting it, you walk around and say

    89

    All kinds of really mean things about me

    90

    'Cause you're a meanie, a meanie

  22. 91

    But it's only 'cause you're just really jealous of me

    92

    'Cause I'm what you wanna be, so you just look like an idiot

    93

    When you say these mean things, 'cause it's too easy to see

    94

    You're really just a big weenie, big weenie
