Apr 27, 2015 I know these "appreciation" threads get old real fast, but we definitely need one for this classic. As The World Turns is one of, if not the best story telling track Eminem has ever written. One of the best on SSLP as well. This track is one of the ones that definitely define "Slim Shady". Anyone else feel this way? Anyone disagree?
Apr 27, 2015 Definitely my favorite SSLP track. The storytelling of this and "My Fault" are my favorite parts of the album
Apr 27, 2015 Ha ha! I just love the way Em taught that fat slut a lesson by raping her! Song loses a lot of its appeal as an adult.
Apr 27, 2015 "As The World Turns" is THE perfect example of underrated SSLP song. It is for reasons exactly like this that SSLP >>>>
Apr 27, 2015 as the world turns is an essential eminem song really digging the recently leaked demo version
Apr 27, 2015 Hypochondriac, hanging out at the laundromat Where all the raunchy fat white trashy blondes be at Dressed like a sailor, standing by a pale of garbage Its almost dark and I'm still tryna nail a trailor park b---- I met a slut and said "What up, its nice to meet ya" I'd like to treat ya to a Faygo and a slice of pizza But I'm broke as f--- and I don't get paid till the first of next month But if you care to join me, I was bout to roll this next blunt But I ain't got no weed, no phillies, or no papers Plus I'm a r--ist and a repeated prison escapist So gimme all your money And don't try nothing funny Cause you know your stinking a--- is too fat to try to outrun me I went to grab my gun That's when her a--- put it on me Wit an uppercut and hit me with a basket of laundry I fell through the glass doors Started causing a scene Then slid across the floor and flew right into a washing machine Jumped up with a broken back Thank god I was smocking crack all day And doped up off coke and smack All I wanted to do was r--- the b---- and snatch her purse Now I wanna k--- her But so I gotta catch her first Ran through Rally's parkin lot and took a shortcut Saw the house she ran up in And shot her f---ing porch up Kicked the door down to murder this divorced slut Looked around the room That's when I seen the bedroom door shut I know you're in there b----! I got my gun cocked! You might as well come out now She said "Come in, its unlocked!" I walked in and all I smelled was Liz Claiborne And seen her spread across the bed naked watching gay p--- She said "Come her big boy, lets get acquainted" I turned around to run, twisted my ankle and sprained it She came at me at full speed, nothing could stop her I shot her five times and every bullet bounced off her I started to beg "No, please let go" But she swallowed my f---ing leg whole like an egg roll With one leg left, now I'm hoppin around crippled I grabbed my pocket knife and sliced off her right nipple Just trying to buy me some time, then I remembered this magic trick Den Den Den Den Den Den, Go go gadget d-ck! Whipped that s--- out, and ain't no doubt about it It hit the ground and caused an earthquake and power outage I shouted "Now b----, lets see who gets the best!" Stuffed that s--- in crooked and f----- that fat slut to death
Apr 28, 2015 I think this track is severely underrated, you never really hear people mention it when they talk SSLP. Love the sense or humour he had back then: "Jumped up with a broken back, thank God I was smoking crack all day doped up on coke and smack" The beat is ill on this track too
Apr 28, 2015 Great song. Perfect example if a song alot of people love but if he released the exact song today it would get picked apart
Apr 28, 2015 She said "Come her big boy, lets get acquainted" I turned around to run, twisted my ankle and sprained it She came at me at full speed, nothing could stop her I shot her five times and every bullet bounced off her I started to beg "No, please let go" But she swallowed my f---ing leg whole like an egg roll Just the thought of it...
Apr 28, 2015 this line specifically is probably my favourite in the whole song. and yeah. this song provides crazy visuals tbh.
