Stan- Dido&Eminem
My teas gone cold Im wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I cant see at all
And even if I could itll all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that its not so bad
Its not so bad
My teas gone cold Im wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I cant see at all
And even if I could itll all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that its not so bad
Its not so bad
Dear Slim, I wrote but you still aint callin
I left my cell, my pager
and my home phone at the bottom
I sent two letters back in autumn
you must not-a 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, whats been up
Man hows your daughter
My girlfriends pregnant too
Im bout to be a father
If I have a daughter,
guess what Ima call her
Ima name her Bonnie
I read about your
Uncle Ronnie too Im sorry
I had a friend kill himself over
some bitch who didnt want him
I know you probably hear this everyday
but Im 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 fat
Anyways, I hope you get this man
hit me back
Just to chat, truly yours,
your biggest fan
This is Stan
My teas gone cold
Im wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I cant see at all
And even if I could itll all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that its not so bad
Its not so bad
Dear Slim, you still aint called or wrote
I hope you have a chance
I aint mad I just think its
fucked up you dont answer fans
If you didnt wanna
talk to me outside your concert
You didnt have to, but you
coulda signed an autograph for Matthew
That's my little brother man
hes only six years old
We waited in the blistering cold for you
Four hours and you just said, no
That's pretty shitty man your 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 dont like bein lied to
Remember when we met in
Denver you said if Id write you
You would write back see
Im 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 youre saying in your songs
So when I have a shitty day
I drift away and put em on
Cause I dont really got shit else so
that shit helps when Im depressed
I even got a tattoo of
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 girlfriends jealous
cause I talk about you 24/7
But she dont know you like
I know you Slim
no one does
She dont know what it was
like for people like us growin up
You gotta call me man
Ill be the biggest fan youll ever lose
Sincerely yours, stan PS
We should be together too
My teas gone cold Im wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I cant see at all
And even if I could itll all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that its not so bad
Its not so bad
Dear mister I'm too good to
call or write my fans
Thisll be the last package
I ever send your ass
Its 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 Im sending you,
I hope you hear it
I'm in the car right now
I'm doing 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 drowning
But didnt, then Phil saw it all
then at aa show he found him
Thats kinda how this is,
you coulda rescued me from drowning
Now its too late I'm on a 1000 downers now
Im 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 love you Slim
we coulda been together, think about it
You ruined it now,
I hope you cant sleep and you dream about it
And when you dream
I hope you cant sleep
and you scream about it
I hope your conscience eats at you
and you cant breathe without me
See slim, shut up bitch!
Im tryin to talk
Hey Slim, thats my girlfriend
screamin in the trunk
But I didnt slit her throat
I just tied her up, see I ain't like you
Cause if she suffocates shell suffer more
and then shell die too
Well, gotta go
I'm almost at the bridge now
Oh shit, I forgot, howm
I supposed to send this shit out
My teas gone cold Im wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I cant see at all
And even if I could itll all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that its not so bad
Its not so bad
Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner
but I just been busy
You said your girlfriends pregnant now
how far along is she
Look, Im really flattered
you would call your daughter that
And heres an autograph for your brother
I wrote it on the Starter cap
I'm sorry I didnt see you at the show
I musta missed you
Don't think I did that shit
intentionally just to diss you
But whats this shit you said
about you like to cut your wrists too
I say that shit just clownin dogg
Come on how fucked up is you
You got some issues Stan
I think you need some counseling
To help your ass from bouncing
off the walls when you get down some
And whats this shit
about us meant to be together
That type of shitll 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 youll be doin just fine
If you relax a little
Im glad I inspire you but Stan
Why are you so mad
Try to understand
that I do want you as a fan
I just dont 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 didnt say who it was to
Come to think about
his name was it was you
Damn
