Written and performed by Eminem who does the voices of all characters in the song Chorus: repeat 2X {Eminem singing} I never meant to give you mushrooms girl I never meant to bring you to my world Now you sitting in the corner crying And now it's my fault my fault [Eminem] I went to John's rave with Ron and Dave And met a new wave blonde babe with half of her head shaved A nurse aid who came to get laid and tied up with first aid tape and raped on the first date Susan -- an ex-heroin addict who just stopped usin who love booze and alternative music (Whattup?) Told me she was goin back into usin again (Nah!) I said, "Wait, first try this hallucinogen It's better than heroin, Henn, the booze or the gin  C'mere, let's go in here" *knocks on the door* "Who's in the den?" [R] "It's me and Kelly!" "My bad, (sorry) let's try another room" [G] I don't trust you! "Shut up slut! Chew up this mushroom This'll help you get in touch with your roots  We'll get barefoot, buttnaked, and run in the woods  [G] Oh hell, I might as well try em, this party is so drab  "Oh drag!!"  [G] What?  "I ain't mean for you to eat the whole bag!"  [G] Huh?!  Chorus: 1st repeat Em says "I'm sorry!" at the end  2nd repeat same as original Chorus  "Yo Sue!"  [G] Get away from me, I don't know you  Oh shoot, she's tripping..  [G] I need to go puke!! (Bleahh!)  I wasn't tryin to turn this into somethin major  I just wanted to make you appreciate nature  Susan, stop cryin, I don't hate ya  The world's not against you, I'm sorry your father raped you  So what you had your little coochie in your dad's mouth?  That ain't no reason to start wiggin and spaz out  She said,[G] “Help me I think I'm havin a seizure!”  I said, "I'm high too bitch, quit grabbin my t-shirt" (Let go!)  "Would you calm down you're startin to scare me" She said, [G] I'm twenty-six years old and I'm not married I don't even have any kids and I can't cook (Hello!) I'm over here Sue, (hi) you're talkin to the plant, look! We need to get to a hospital 'fore it's too late Cause I never seen no-one eat as many shrooms as you ate Chorus: 1st repeat Em says "Whoops!" after first line and "It was an accident!" at the end 2nd repeat same as original Chorus Susan (wait!) Where you goin? You better be careful (leave me alone dad, I'm sick of getting my hair pulled) I'm not your dad And try not to swallow your tongue Want some gum? Put down the scissors, 'fore you do somethin dumb I'll be right back just chill baby please? I gotta go find Dave he's the one who gave me these "John, where's Dave at before I bash you?" [J] He's in the bathroom; I think he's takin a crap dude! Dave pull up your pants, we need an ambulance There's a girl upstairs talkin to plants choppin her hair off, and there's only two days left of Spring Break, how long do these things take to wear off?" [D] Well it depends on how may you had  "I took three, she ate the other twenty-two caps Now she's upstairs cryin out her eyeballs, drinkin Lysol" [D] She's gonna die dude  "I know and it's my fault!"  [D] My god!!!  Chorus: 1st repeat Em says "I'm sorry!" after second line  and "What do I do?" at the end  2nd repeat same as original Chorus My God, I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! Susan please wake up! Please! Please wake up!! What are you doing?! You're not dead!! You're NOT dead! I know you're not dead! Oh my God! Susan wake up! Oh God...
