Dope Fiend
Ill Bill Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

*(Verse 1)*
Let me get that needle, pass it,
When it comes to the get high, baby I'm a junky bastard
The fastest, so I'm a flow exempt me
Let me get a dozen bagels and a ???
Now please arrest me, officer,
'Cause I started lookin' in the Nautica
Polo, Tommy Hillfiger sweater
Mr. Woody Harrilson couldn't do no better
I'm Natural Born to the motherfuckin' letter
For pleasure, I dig out your brain like treasure
Take your blood pressure, examine, measure
Discover, twenty years ago I fucked your mother
I'm a born junky, I'll never recover

*(Chorus)* 2x
Let me get that needle, pass it, when it comes to bein' the dope fiend,
Kid I got's to have it
Let me get that needle, pass it, when it comes to the get high,
Baby I'm a junky bastard

*(Verse 2)*
I be gettin' voodoo raw like Greek sex
I'm searchin' for six chicks wit' sloppy tits hangin' off their chests
Fuck kickin' flavor in your ear,
I'd rather kick you in your fuckin' cunt, then rip off your brassiere
I'm here, Mr. I-double-L-B,
A-double-L, puffin' on a nick a crack in my jail-cell
They pay me well for my services
When I murder kids, I orgasm
Then I get rid of the evidence
Left up on the scene of the crime
I spit back inside of my mouth when I rhyme
Bloody, little punk ass, rudy-dudy
Let me get your crack-rock and all your money
Sonny, I'm a fuckin' sicky
I'm a six-inch it in then toss you in the lake like Ricki
Illin' like a handy-capped spaz
Peep the soup-bass, rippin' out the frame of your ass

*(Chorus)* 2x

*(Verse 3)*
Walkin' through the rain, I saw you
You were holdin' hands, I'm startin' to feel like Orange Juice Jones
I don't really care if you just returned your glasses
I'm a take a butcher knife to your sorry asses
(?) Stop fantasizing about pizza-pies wit' (?)
Body parts n shit, get your fuckin' throat slit
'Cause I'm a modern crazy guy, you're all gonna die
So why even bother actin' fly on the plane to Chicago
Call Hertz rent a rental car
Think your crazy 'cause you got a scar
Think again, I'll cut you again
I'm a put that doody-casserole inside of your mother's oven





*(Chorus)* 2x

In the first verse, Ill Bill is asking for a needle to inject drugs and declares himself a "junky bastard" who can't live without getting high.

The second verse takes a more violent turn, as Ill Bill raps about his sadistic tendencies and love for killing. He claims to enjoy the thrill of murdering kids and getting rid of the evidence, leaving a bloody scene behind. He takes pleasure in causing pain and degradation to women, disrespecting them in vulgar terms. He also shares his drug use history, as he describes himself as a crack smoker and prisoner. The chorus follows with the same plea for drugs, indicating that Ill Bill's addiction hasn't subsided.


The third verse continues the themes of violence and mental illness, as Ill Bill rants about cutting people with a butcher knife and wanting to hurt others.
