Eminem - Backstabber Lyrics
[Police voice:]
Attention all units, attention all units
We have an All Points Bulletin out on a man with green hair
I repeat, we have an APB on a man with green hair
He's armed with a knife, I repeat, he's armed with a knife
He could be coming at your girlfriend next
[Verse 1:]
There's a joker on the loose from the psychiatric ward
His face is up on the bulletin board with a reward
He'll stab you with a sword don't be fooled by his charm
He's probably armed with intent to do bodily harm
Ring the alarm, look for a man with green hair
Check at your girl's house, he was last seen there
He's has a mean stare but usually crack's jokes
[Chorus:]
I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Stay away from him he ain't no good!
[Verse 2:]
We got the walkie-talkies to keep us all informed
Suited up head to toe in detective uniforms
Our unit storms in, we split the ghetto in sectors
Locking down every block and put up metal detectors
Protectors and be sure that you stand close
Watch each others backs and guard your command post
And most of all be advised that he's wise
He could be disguised as one of your very own guys
[Chorus:]
I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Stay away from him he ain't no good!
[Verse 3:]
I'm on a solo mission to find him personally
To settle the score and beat then him mercifully
For what he first did to me
It's sure to be the last
Following footprints with a magnifying glass
To drag his lying ass back to his padded cell
I'm mad as hell, on the trail of the tattle tail
I heard a yell the voice sounded familiar
"Give me your girlfriend or I'm gonna kill ya"
[Chorus:]
I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Stay away from him he ain't no good!
[Verse 4:]
I followed the voice that led down a flight of steps
Sneezing at dust, and swinging at the spider-webs
Inside the depths of his basement
I taste lint in my mouth, then the lights in the place went!
I saw my life flash in front of my eyes
I felt a butcher knife slash at one of my thighs
None of my guys knew where I'm at I was doomed
Then I remembered the flashlight in my costume
[Chorus:]
I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Stay away from him he ain't no good!
[Verse 5:]
Dealing with backstabber's there was one thing I learned
They're only powerful when you got your back turned
I yearned for the day that we finally met again
So I can give him a taste of his own medicine
He shed his skin, then he promised to come clean
I took his butcher knife and jabbed it into his spleen
Cut him at the seam then dragged the fella home
Beating him over the head with the telephone
[Police voice:]
Attention all cars, attention all cars
Unit 313 has apprehended the suspect
He's going back to the crazy home, I repeat
He's going back to the crazy home, how about that?
[Chorus:]
I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Stay away from him he ain't no good!
I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Stay away from him he ain't no good!
I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Hit a bitch snake from the back, I make you think you're a backstabber
Why I oughtta
Stay away from him he ain't no good!

Eminem Backstabber Comments
The only thing should live the Latinos and whites in life and that’s only thing I give so get sick
The story format and flow in this song really reminds me of Slick Rick.

Soul Intent - Fuckin’ Backstabber
I came here after the documentary lol

This song is legendary!!!!!!!!!!
Dear lord this is good. Even in 2019, and forever.
not the same as the mixtape
Favorite lyrics of the Infinite era. 👍
I like how in infinite he was trying really hard on his album, and it flopped, then he drops slim shady LP with no fucks given and it went platinum
This is so smooth
Job well done.
These lyrics are so incredibly inaccurate...
Noticed that.
Who knows it's supposed to be the joker
TGS Fade // VoLt Azon its directed at Chaptown, he made a song called “do-da-dipity” where he sings it in a psychiatric ward
the chorus is actually "come here you fuckin backstabber why i oughta hit a bitch snake from the hood"
Yeehaw let me ****** your feethaw
Been here since ‘96
I'm gonna play this over and over again and feel goose bumps every repeat :)
It's already 2019 and this the first time that I'd heard this. Damn :)
Underrated song
Whoever disliked this tune is a fat prick wasted, doesnt know shit about rap music you fucking scumbag##
too bad this flopped
the jokers minions disliked this 79 times
Is there anyone from 2019?
A taste of your own medicine lost begotten you should have known it was comeing......A dream about a wizard throwing fireballs and I couldn't hit him with my sword.....I had to use my sword to hit the fireball to throw it back at him to hurt him....Copy and paste...arts and crafts....Here it is....
Shawn I told you a day one.....Now you know.....
Someone copy this video! https://youtu.be/CzDYLT-h1ng

What a Great album
These lyrics couldn't be further from correct. Just sayin'.

This is way Eminem is a lyrical genius
no one will ever be as good as em
He's the best
damn , eminem really a good lyricist . i wish i could just be like him,
This is em's first ever signal to be released.
I am sooo proud of my self that i know it!
Amanda green hair nuts with the light what lights that are you mean going into a pub and not in drunken disorder they get snapped up by individual people know thank you and you expect me to join the club so easily when I'm just fixing my face and some medical injection yummy
Who 's lil pump again?
Some dickhead who thinks he can spit
this is homage to the oldschool goofy storytelling raps with a hint of a slumbering slim shady
he is so on beat on this ep and on infinite but when slim shady ep came out he really stopped caring about being on beat. its like right here hes so focused on being perfect and in slim ep he really just didn't give a...….. haha man love em
Eminem said that he looked bad on his old albums cause his was off beat
Joker Ending song 2019?
Reminds me a little of Geto Boys
Still better than Rap Devil
Deff inspired by slick rick , the grandfather of story telling rap.. love em for that

No sir I arrived
eminem4raver.
I'm here in 2030
Afraid so
Brings me back to when I was 16, ill never not love infinite in totality.
2018 ??? 😂😂😂
Wow, Eminem's first single sounds horribly familiar about things made up about me. I need to holler at him.
You can tell he read a lot of comics lol
Why I never heard this.. smh. Fire.
Hands down the best Eminem album
Come here you fucking backstabber
He's a bitch nigga from the hood
Is the chorus
Somehow I seem to have failed to recognize the point where music turned into orders for the crowd ... but okay
still feels like beverly hills 90210 but with more drugs
By far my fave rapper of all time
Is it just me or does the beggining sound similar to The Real Slim Shady's beggining?
WTF IS THIS SHIT YOU KID TO TWAT THIS IS ALL SLPWED DOWN 10× LEAVE MUSOC ALL E IF U CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT
Wow Ems first single
Story telling his game and his name isssssssssssss king mathers
this song is ass
Glopinboopin420 make a better one then chode
holy fuck this is fire as shit
Man. I remember smoking Mexican brick weed Js in my basement with my boys listening to this off a burned CD back in 99 along with sslp. Where has the time gone.
I think i am retarded bcs i think Eminem's microphone was better in 1996
Come here you fuckin backstabber. Is the chorus
Ahhh. I miss this song so much.
This was his first song
Austin Crosby lol your dumb af his first real song was around 88 I think. He talks about a black girl in his first.
Mission failed will try next time
How bout dah
Aquemini vibes anyone?
he's talking about the joker 🃏?
Yes, and the Riddler!
hes talking about champtown
The "why i oughta" is from "get down" by craig mack
I guess they originally used it then, but that is Moe Szyslak, the bartender on the Simpsons, haha. So many rappers have used Simpsons references, quotes, clips, etc in their music at some point, and I think that it's awesome. In the early 90's when rap/hip-hop wasn't the cultural phenomenon it is today, most high profile entertainment outlets wouldn't dare incorporate it into their work, but The Simpsons have been doing it since the very early years, which is probably why many rap artists tend to pay homage to this day. That, and it's just one hell of a funny show, lol.

Prime example of Eminem's storytelling skill
This doesn't seem like em?
"Check at ya girls house" is perfect with the beat
Who's here in 2017!
Ashy Moore 2019
Y’all skipped 2018 smh
Relatable
For everyone's info, this song was a single released on cassette pre-infinite. He couldn't sell it back then, so they went around different cities and handed them out for free to try and generate buzz. Unsuccesfully
The cassette had this and Biterphobia on the flip side. They'd be priceless these days
The instrumental sounds like New Jack Swing.
i wanna find the instrumental!!
He didn't even swear once in this lmao
Fuck! Shit! Ass! Bitch! Cunt! Shooby-de-doo-wop!
The hook has the word “Bitch”
@jayjayjames2332 97' Bonnie and Clyde has no swearing because hailie is in the story. Genius. And I'm shady has no swearing either. Probably because its supposed to be happy
@jayjayjames2332 Actually there aren't any swear words at all in "Tonite".
He did but it was very unnoticable.
I came here after the documentary lol
Same here an it sounds good
How come we don't even talk no more?Ah i do remember ,your lyrics were wrong. Bye Ps : Good old song by M
this is how the line goes *come here you backstabber be the n from the hood*
"They're only powerful when your back's turned" :)
Jhanvi YJ I read this the same time it was said
