Cover art for The Monster (feat. Rihanna) lyrics by Eminem

Here you go, the original lyrics, whatever is on here is what people think they heard. This is what they actually sing :

I’m friends with the monster that’s under my bed Get along with the voices inside of my head You’re tryin’ to save me, stop holdin’ your breath And you think I’m crazy yeah, you think I’m crazy

I wanted the fame but not the cover of Newsweek Oh well, guess beggars can’t be choosey Wanted to receive attention for my music Wanted to be left alone in public excuse me For wantin’ my cake and eat it too and wantin’ it both ways Fame made me a balloon ‘cuz my ego inflated when I blew, see But it was confusing, ‘cuz all I wanted to do’s be The Bruce Lee of loose leaf Abused ink, used it as a tool when blew steam Whoo, hit the lottery ooh-wee But with, what I gave up to get it was bittersweet it was like winnin’ a used mink Ironic ‘cuz I think I’m getting’ so huge I need a shrink, I’m beginnin’ to lose sleep One sheep, two sheep, goin’ coo-coo and kooky as Kool Keith But I’m actually weirder than you think (Cuz I’m..)

I’m friends with the monster that’s under my bed Get along with the voices inside of my head You’re tryin to save me, stop holding your breath And you think I’m crazy, yeah you think I’m crazy Well that’s nothin’, well that’s nothin’

Now I ain’t much of a poet but somebody once told me to seize the moment and don’t squander it Cuz you never know when it could all be over tomorrow so I keep conjurin’ Sometimes I wonder where these thoughts spawn from Yeah ponderin’ll do you wonders no wonder your losin’ your mind the way it wanders ,yodalodaleheehoo, I think it went wanderin’ off down yonder and Stumbled on ‘ta Jeff VanVonderen, ‘cuz I need a interventionist, to intervene between me and this monster And save me from myself and all this conflict ’Cuz the very thing that I love’s killin’ me and I can’t conquer it My OCD’s conkin’ me in the head keep knockin’ Nobody’s home I’m sleepwalkin’ I’m just relayin’ what the voice in my head’s sayin’, don’t shoot the messenger I’m just friends with the..

I’m friends with the monster that’s under my bed Get along with the voices inside of my head You’re tryin to save me, stop holding your breath And you think I’m crazy, yeah you think I’m crazy Well that’s nothin’, well that’s nothin’

Call me crazy but I have this vision One day that, I’ll walk amongst you a regular civilian But until then, drums get killed and I’m Comin’ straight at MC’s blood gets spilled and I’ll Take you back to the days that I’d get on a Dre track, give every kid who got played that, pumped up feelin’ And shit to say back to the kids who played him, I ain’t here save the fuckin’ children But if one kid out of a hundred million Who are goin’ through a struggle feels it and Relates that’s great, it’s payback, Russell Wilson Fallin’ way back in the draft turn nothin’ into somethin still can Make that straw into gold chump, I will spin, Rumpelstiltskin In a haystack, maybe I need a straightjacket face facts, I am nuts for real, but I’m ok with that, it’s nuthin’ I’m still friends With the...

I’m friends with the monster that’s under my bed Get along with the voices inside of my head You’re tryin to save me stop holding your breath And you think I’m crazy yeah you think I’m crazy... I’m friends with the monster that’s under my bed Get along with the voices inside of my head You’re tryin to save me stop holding your breath And you think I’m crazy yeah you think I’m crazy well that’s nothin’, well that’s nothin’
