Jealousy Woes II

[Intro: Sample]

Jealous!

Jealous!

Jealous!

Jealous!

Jealous!

Jealous!

Jealous!

Jealous!

[Woman's voice: (Talking over the singing)]

Jealous?! What he mean "jealous"?

Know what I'm sayin'? He just mad ‘cause he all with them ugly hoes, know what I'm sayin'?

Girls don't buy him no clothes

He bought that ho some clothes!

He don't buy me no clothes

That nigga ain't got no money, no vibe, no dick

I mean, what do I got to be jealous fo'?

He ain't gonna make it nowhere

He ain't got no type of time

He has no career move, I mean…

[Verse 1: Eminem]

I come home every single day from workin' double shifts

And stop along the way to pick you up a couple gifts

I come inside and you pretend you miss me

When you kiss me, then you diss me

And we strenuously fight continuously

Again you frisk me, for numbers, tryin' to bust me

It must be only just because you never learned to trust me

Plus we only squabble over irrelevant issues

Too many tissues for my feelings you misuse

I buy you jewelry, you make a fool of me

I bring you diamond rings, you say I'm bad at timin' things

So what's a man to do

When all I hand to you is handed back to me?

You act to be this gangsta bitch

That ain't what first attracted me

I used to love your company

Now you’re always pumpin' me for information

And you tell your friends you plan on dumpin' me

So I'ma wait for your evacuation

‘Cause every accusation

Makes me wanna smack your face in

See, I've never been so sure, and you're just insecure

So my solution to your jealousy presents a cure

I recommend you take your things and check 'em in

Look at the nervous wreck I'm in

I need my second wind—say what?!

[Hook: Sample x8]

Jealo-!

Jealousy!

Jealousy!

[Woman's Voice: (Talking over singing)]

Fuck you and what you going through! Fuck Eminem!

He just mad ‘cause I left that nigga for another man

Me and Eminem don't need nothin' but minus money

Immature, me? Nigga ain't got no dick

No swang in his thang, know what I'm sayin'?

He just mad ‘cause I'm gettin' it all night

Jealous of me, know what I'm sayin'?

That's what I'm talkin' about

Motherfucker just tryin' to get this pussy

[Verse 2: Eminem]

I used to be a puppet and a sucker for your silent treatments

I used to be intoxicated with your sweet scents

Until the day I started followin' your feetprints

And tappin' in your phone conversations

Through the heat vents—it made complete sense

There's someone else you like

So I confronted you and asked you, "Who was Mike?"

And you was like, (I need a new nigga)

"Someone rich that I could follow

And you'll be over me by the time you see tomorrow."

Leavin' me in sorrow, Brandy never felt so brokenhearted

I fell apart when you departed, then the jokin' started

I was an open target, you play comedian

And I became the laughing stock

But now I'm on my feet again

And so we meet again, you're actin' like an ex-wife

All in my sex life, I got a message from Phife

It goes, "You didn't want me to see yo' hon

Don't want me now, take the towel, wipe your brow!"

Quit tryin' to hunt me down!

You run me down and now your tryin' to apologize

For all the lies and everytime you made me ball my eyes

Because I got a bigger wallet size, you wanna swing it

Jealousy is in the house, y'all—fellas, sing it!

[Hook: Sample x12]

Jealo-!

Jealousy!

Jealousy!
