Dear slim, I wrote you but you still ain't callin<br>I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom<br>I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not of got em<br>There was probably a problem at the post office or somethin<br>Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em<br>But anyways, fuck it, what's been up, hows your daughter? <br>My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm 'bout to be a father<br>If I have a daughter, guess what ima call her? ima name her<br>Bonnie...<br>I read about your uncle ronnie too I'm sorry<br>I had a friend kill himself over a bitch who didn't want him<br>I know you probably hear this everyday but I'm your biggest fan<br>I even got the underground shit that you did with scam<br>I got a room full of your posters and your pictures man<br>I like the shit you did with rawkus too that shit was phat<br>Anyways I hope you get this man, hit me back, just to chat<br>Truly yours, your biggest fan, this is stan<br><br>Dear slim, you still haven't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance<br>I ain't mad, I just think it's fucked up that you don't answer fans<br>If you didn't wanna talk to me outside of the concert<br>You didn't have to, but you coulda signed an autograph for matthew<br>That's my little brother, he's only six years old<br>We waited in the blisterin' cold for you, for 4 hours and you just said no<br>Thats pretty shitty man you're like his fuckin idol<br>He wants to be just like you man he likes you more than I do<br>I ain't that mad though I just don't like being lied to<br>Remember when we met in demburg, you said if I write you<br>You would write back, see I'm just like you in a way<br>I never knew my father neither, he used to always cheat on my mom and beat her<br>I can relate to what you're sayin in your songs<br>So when I have a shitty day, I ripped away and put 'em on<br>Cuz I don't really got shit else so that shit helps when I'm depressed<br>I even got a tattoo with your name across the chest<br>Sometimes I used to cut myself to see how much it bleeds<br>It's like adrenaline, but pain is such a sudden rush for me<br>And everything you say is real, and I respect you cuz you tell it<br>My girlfriend's jealous cuz I talk about you 24/7<br>But she don't know you like I know you slim, no one does<br>She don't know what it was like for people like us growin up<br>You gotta call me man, I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose<br>Sincerely yours, stan, ps: we should be together too<br><br>Dear mr. i'm-too-good-to-call-or-write-my-fans<br>This'll be the last package I ever send your ass<br>It's been 6 months and still no word, I don't deserve it? <br>I know you got my last two letters, I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect<br>So this is my cassette I'm sendin' you, I hope you hear it<br>I'm in the car right now, I'm doin' 90 on the freeway<br>Hey slim, I drank a 5th of vodka, dare me to drive? <br>You know that song by bill collins 'in the air in the night'<br>Where that guy coulda saved that other guy from drownin'<br>But didn't, then bill saw it all and at a show he found him<br>That's kinda how this is, you coulda rescued my from drownin'<br>Now it's too late, I'm on a 1000 downers now I'm drowsy<br>And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call<br>I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off the wall<br>I love you slim, we coulda been together, think about it<br>You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it<br>And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it<br>I hope your conscience eats through you and you can't breathe without me<br>See slim....shut up bitch I'm tryin to talk<br>Hey slim, that's my girlfriend screamin in the trunk<br>But I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain't like you<br>Cuz if she suffocates then she'll suffer more and then she'll die too<br>Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now<br>Oh shit, I forgot, how'm I supposed to send this shit out? <br><br>Dear stan, I meant to write you sooner but I just been busy<br>You said your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she? <br>Look, I'm really flattered that you would call your daughter that<br>And here's an autograph for your brother, I wrote it on a starter cap<br>I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show, I musta missed you<br>Don't think that I did that shit intentionally just to diss you<br>But what's this shit about you said you like to cut your wrist too? <br>I say that shit just clownin dog, come on, how'd 'fuck' convince you? <br>You got some issues stan I think you need some counselin'<br>To help your ass from bouncin' off the walls when you get downsome<br>And what's this shit about us meant to be together<br>That type of shit will not make me want to meet eachother<br>I really think you and your girlfriend need eachother<br>Or maybe you just need to treat her betteri hope you get to read this letter<br>I just hope it reaches you in time<br>Before you hurt yourself, I think you'll be doin just fine<br>If you relax a little, I'm glad I inspire you, but stan..<br>Why you so mad, try to understand I do want you as a fan<br>I just don't want you to do some crazy shit<br>I saw this one shit on the news a few weeks ago that made me sick<br>Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge<br>And had his girlfriend in the trunk, and she was pregnant with his kid<br>And in the car they found a tape but it didnt say who it was<br>Come to think about it...the name was...it was you.stan.
