Eminem
Monkey See, Monkey Do
[Intro]
Ayo Slim, I got you!
[Chorus: Eminem]
Monkey see, monkey do
Don't ever make the first move, just let 'em come to you
'Cause they gon' always see and do what the other one do
So let 'em come to you, the rest'll just follow suit
Monkey see, monkey do
Tweedle-dee, tweedle-dum
If they really want it bad enough, well, then they gon' come
Now here they come like we expected, now we just set 'еm up
Checkmate, motherfuckеr, game's over, we won
Tweedle-dee, tweedle-dum
[Verse]
Look—
I don’t rap, I talk slick with a razor tongue
Ja screamin’ like Pac, but you ain't made for one
You a singer with a gimmick, a sandwich with no beef
Talk greasy, then hide behind your label's teeth
You cried on the record, emotional thug
Got clapped in your own hood, then blamed it on love
I came through with the Dre co-sign and a grudge
Now I'm rich off the pain that you tried to judge
You mimic my style, then play the victim again
Put your lil' chain on, try to fit in with men
I see you, baby boy — yeah, with your candy ink
You tried to murder me, but couldn’t handle the link
And Nas? I ain’t sayin’ names, but if the QB fit
Keep sidin' with lames, you gon’ sink with the ship
I ain't the one for the sneak talk, I see through smirks
Say somethin' slick, and you'll leave in a Reeboks shirt
I got the city on my back and the crown on lock
Y’all monkeys copy moves, but the real don’t mock
I’m the quiet in the room, but the loud in your soul
Fif run New York, case closed — now fold
[Chorus]
Monkey see, monkey do
Don't ever make the first move, just let 'em come to you
'Cause they gon' always see and do what the other one do
So let 'em come to you, the rest'll just follow suit
Monkey see, monkey do
Tweedle-dee, tweedle-dum
If they really want it bad enough, well, then they gon' come
Now here they come like we expected, now we just set 'em up
Checkmate, motherfucker, game's over, we won
Tweedle-dee, tweedle-dum
[Outro]
Yeah... don’t get it twisted
I don’t gotta name you — you already twitchin’
Monkey see, monkey do... but a lion don’t dance for the zoo
