Eminem
Techno Mix Vol. 1 Lyrics

When we touchdown
We make our arrival known

In the Midwest we OK
The Midwest is where we are currently located and things are going well

Everybody know them southern boys love that bass
It is common knowledge that people from the South enjoy music with a heavy bass sound

Atlanta go bananas, Alabama, Louisiana
Atlanta, Alabama, and Louisiana are particularly enthusiastic about our music performances

Mississippi tenekeys, every mothafuckin' state
People in every state respond well to our music, including those in Mississippi

Go right from the plane to the range
As soon as we touch down we head directly to our luxury cars

On the private plane gettin' brain, till we
We engage in sexual activity on our private plane until we arrive at our destination

Eh ain't no way to keep 'em quiet
People are too excited to be kept calm

Wit T.I. and Shady baby we bout to insight a riot
With T.I. and Shady, we are going to cause an uproar

When we get in town, you know how we getting down
When we arrive in a new location, people know what to expect from us

Pull a cling an hop on out, snatch all the freaks then walk on out
We immediately start mingling with people and picking up women when we arrive

I'm livin' what they talkin' bout, shinin' if it dark or not
I am embodying what people talk about when they refer to living lavishly, and I continue to do so regardless of the circumstances

That one hundred D-X double R, you'll find that in the parkin' lot
My luxury Rolls-Royce is parked in the lot and easy to find

You barkin' up the wrong tree, I do this shit for zone 3
You are directing your negative energy towards the wrong person; I make music for the Zone 3 area

4, 5 and 6 as well as 1, atlanta I'm forever son
I make music for multiple Atlanta areas and represent Atlanta as a whole

Still be on whatever coat, grindin' blowin' heavy smoke
I continue to use drugs and engage in partying lifestyle

Him you better tell 'em fo, won't hesitate to let him go
If someone is causing issues, they should be warned before being removed

They know I put that green light on them haters
My haters are aware that I have taken action against them

Keep on tryin' me I'll put that beam right on ya tater
If you continue to provoke me, I will use my weapon against you

(Bow wow wow wow)
Background sound effects added for emphasis

You don't wanna see T.I.P he irate
You do not want to see T.I.P. angry

Try to keep in a cage but some how he keep escapin'
People try to control T.I.P.'s behavior but he always escapes their grasp

That's why I be on vacation, Virgin Islands I be takin'
Because of the stress related to his reputation, he takes frequent vacations and enjoys visiting the Virgin Islands

Private planes out to Spain, now keep on flyin' I ain't fakin'
He takes private planes to luxurious destinations like Spain and has no intentions of stopping

The money ain't a thing, think I'm lyin' your mistaken
Money is not an issue for him, and those who think it is are wrong

You can find long lines, and all kinds of bitches your way
Women are eager to interact with him and can be easily found in the surrounding area

Welcome to the Midwest, yes
We are now in the Midwest

Where the Detroit players, ball like you have no idea
In Detroit, people play hard and intensely

The boy is here
He has arrived

Got the whole place lookin' like its candy painted, ain't it
His car is so well-decorated that it draws attention

Like we left the kids at home and just let 'em loose with the crayons
His car looks like children were given free reign with the art supplies

Fuck, I just hit a jogger
He just hit a person jogging with his car

People lookin' like frogger
People are jumping out of the way to avoid being hit like in the video game Frogger

They hoppin' out the way whenever they see Marshal's car comin'
People are quick to get out of the way when they see Marshall's car approaching

The kids painted my windows with black, permanent marker
Children drew on his windows with a permanent marker

And left the rest of the car color cover like swirl pops
They used other colorful swirls to decorate the car

And I got the bass thumpin' but I'm bound to bump into something
His music is loud and engrossing, which often causes him to accidentally hit things

Kids are flyin' through the air lookin' like they're crumpin', the way they're tumbling
Children are being thrown into the air and tumbling around while he is driving

I gotta do something
He recognizes that he needs to address the situation

But soon as I hit the carwash, to get the tar off
As soon as he arrives at the carwash to get the marker off, he will immediately resume his music

Then it's right back at it tomorrow
He knows he will be back on the road again the next day

They're like dad, this is in, so get with the trend
His children tell him to stay fashionable and relevant

This is for the pimps, listenin' to MIMS, nail polish on the rims
This style is popular among pimps who listen to MIMS and decorate their car rims with nail polish

And now it's custom chrome, but I gotta go do a show
His rims are now chrome and he has to leave for his performance

So go on with your bad self, just have it back to normal when I
Go ahead and enjoy yourself, but clean up the car before I come back

I guarantee I put this d-i-c-k in somebody daughter, ey
He is confident that he will have sex with someone's daughter

I still have my way with the ladies across the water
He is still popular with women from all over the world

Flew from Paris to Haiti, just some shit that I thought of
He flew from Paris to Haiti on a whim

Its ironic kind of shit that we buy man
It is ironic that people purchase the kinds of things they do

Make us psychotic
Their consumption habits drive them to be a bit crazy

Threat to corporate America, then why they runnin' from me
He poses a threat to Corporate America, which is why they avoid him

How could they be so ignorant look at what hip hop den done
Corporate America is failing to recognize the success of hip hop culture

Its allowed us to run a business, we should of made it our money
Hip hop has given us the opportunity to run successful businesses in the industry

Got us out the ghettos, relocated our mommies
Hip hop has allowed us to escape from poverty and move our families to better areas

I made it all the way here, ain't no way you takin' it from me
He has worked hard to get where he is and is determined to keep it

So excuse me Oprah honey I'm sorry really I promise
He apologizes to Oprah in advance

But niggas bitches and hoes do exist I'm just bein' honest
He acknowledges that people like to use derogatory terms to describe others

But why am I bein' punished why is you so astonished
He questions why people are so surprised by his honesty

Now I ain't got a degree just intelligence and abundance
He did not attend college but has an abundance of intelligence

So you ain't gotta like me I know millions folks that love me
He is aware that not everyone likes him, but has a large fan base all the same

Well u can tell how they yellin' and screamin'
You can tell he is loved by how his fans react during performances

An waitin' for me
They eagerly wait for him to show up

When we touchdown
The song ends with a repetition of the chorus line from the beginning
