Lies & Rumors Lyrics


CHORUS:
They say that one little lie turns into another. Then you go and cheat
By the time you know it, you all wrapped up in a whole bunch of seaweed
You should listen to your mama and listen to your daddy when they try to speak
And tell you that theres just too many fishes in the sea.No, no, no, no, no, no no no.
No, no, no, no, no, no no no.
No, no, no, no, no, no no no.
No, no, no, no, no, no no no.
No, no, no, no, no, no no no.
No, no, no, no, no, no no no.
No, no, no, no, no, no no no.
No, no, no, no, no, no no no.Now this thing here, No cause concern, but
Its just another story about a shark eating worms
Its not a riddle, but subliminally catches on
How one little lie can turn into a bigger oneWhen I was a young guppy in the sea
You could see all the bigger fish picking on me
Cause they knew I didnt really have the guard or bullet
And the other sharks that have teeth sharper than meIm a never-ending story about a shark this big

The load of kids that got an act for fizz
So sit back, kick back with a bag of chips
While I tell you bout something stupid I didCHORUSIm off to work but Im late [hey] But what can I say? [hey]
Im cool with the boss and of course its a payday
We reachin the weekend and Ill be treatin my baby
Typical day, dudes in the way But hey wait!
Sharks in the water. Gotta duck in the corner til Im caught
Im a talk and a walk where I wanna
eatin' the seaweed. Sippin this green tea.
Big fish in this small world. Theyll all believe me
For knocking a shark off, protecting my city
They all grab my CD and now Im a popular rock star.
Like it or not though. Im a marvelous artist.
Working my hardest and becoming a starfish.Now what am I to do? The boss is on my back.
I gotta follow his orders when sharks attack
Its a dangerous scene. But Im a Rasta man
Cross me and my brother, it will cost ya, man.
And this little pip squeak is gettin on my nerves.
So my tentacles should give him just what he deserves.
So you better swim fast cause Im after ya
And go and hide inside the mouth of a clam or somethin.
Cause Im out and about. Im bad news.
A henchman - a jellyfish with an attitude. So listen.
Swim for your life cause Im on your tail
So frightenin I scare a snail outta its shell.CHORUSI love this liquid. Im silly when Im in it and I bet
[This water were standing in is wet. Duh.]
What do you expect from me?
Im a platinum Jack Dempsey. Trying to get a fee.
And everybody know that Im the G of the sea.
I just knocked this shark off. The dude tried to eat me.
I guess he didnt like me. It might be because Im a Pisces.
They always try to take me lightly. So why the trouble?
I just wanna hustle and multiply bubbles and pump my muscles.
I dont want to make a mistake cause these fishermen will set you up
And I aint fallin for the baitDaddy what are we gonna do with a fish with a tattoo?
Were gonna eat him. What do you think?Im a lion fish with dreams of making it big.
House in the ocean, three ugly kids.
And why everybody keep on picking on me?
Im the sexiest, prettiest fish in the sea.
Heck no. I aint nobody dish
Cause Im in love with Angie the beautiful angelfish
[kissing sound]
Give me a kiss baby
Im running from the white shark
You are trying to make me crazy.CHORUS

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

D12

D12 (aka The Dirty Dozen and D-Twizzy) was initially formed in 1991 by Proof who invited local Detroit rappers such as Bizarre, Eminem and other members who would leave the crew before it achieved success including Eye Kyu, Killa Hawk and FUZZ. The group was a loose collective in the vein of Wu-Tang Clan. Several members began making names for themselves in hip hop during the late 1990s. Bizarre was named Inner City Entertainment's "Flava of the Week". He would also release an album entitled Attack Of The Weirdos and become a member of Tha Outsidaz with Eminem and Rah Digga. Proof won a freestyling competition run by The Source in 1998.

However, it was as a solo artist that D12 member Eminem found success. All of the members of D12 have aliases and Eminem chose Slim Shady as his. Eminem Was Formerly In A Group Called Soul Intent Along With Proof before leaving and forming with d12. They recorded an album called Infinite followed by an independent EP called The Slim Shady EP in 1997 that caught the attention of famed rap producer Dr. Dre and Interscope CEO Jimmy Iovine, and soon signed to Aftermath/Interscope, releasing his breakthrough album The Slim Shady LP in 1999 which went on to be certified 4x platinum in the U.S.

Eminem's success persuaded Proof to establish D12 on a more permanent basis in early 1999. Bizarre, Eminem, Kon Artis, Bugz, and Swifty McVay were recruited to join the group. Kuniva and Kon Artis were previously part of Da Brigade. However, Bugz passed away in Detroit on May 21, 1999 because of a gun incident at a picnic that turned into a shooting death, leading to Kuniva proposing to take Bugz's place. Each of the members of the crew wears a tattoo of Bugz's name in his honor. The tracks Good Die Young and Bugz 97 (the latter of which features an appearance from Bugz) on D12 World are also in his memory.

The six members of D12 signed a contract with Eminem's Shady Records and Interscope in 2000. The fact that D12 rose to prominence after Eminem led many people to assume that the other members had less significance in the group - this would be the concept of the group's 2004 hit single My Band. They also made the song to adress the common using of Eminem featuring D12.

Despite Eminem's prominence in the music industry, D12 insists that there is no frontman in the group and that Eminem is just another member. In spite of this, D12 recently began to tour as a separate entity to Eminem, a controversial move that could lead to confusion among concert-goers who may believe they are paying to see Eminem as well as the other five performers.

Sadly, early morning on April 11, 2006, Proof was shot and killed at a Detroit-area nightclub. Proof, real name DeShaun Holton, was 32 years old. Proof was also one of Eminem's best friends and will be missed by fans and friends.

There is rumored to be a new album in the process that will release either in 2010 or 2011. Eminem and Kon Artis validated that statement in an interview with Tim Westwood.
