These are the lyrics, right?

Quote:

Guess I got a way with words I could get away with murder
Ever heard of Aspergers? It's a rare condition
It's what you're suffering from when you simply don't care if its an
80 degree day and theres no fricken air conditioning
And you can't see the big terrace risen
'Cus you got the windows up blaring the system in your chevrolet prism
The devil ain't on the level same as him
Just someone who rebels in straight masochism
And imagine him giving him an adjective an ass whooping so bad they should put his ass in prison

I don't understand it. I don't think he does either.

i dont really either to be honest. lol.

nd you can't see the big terrace risen
'Cus you got the windows up blaring the system in your chevrolet prism

i feel like that could be about us in our own mind (mind being the car) not noticing things outside of it cause our thoughts (or music) is loud, or overpowering.

or i could be overthinking =p

I think he only mentions it because the phrase "ever heard of aspergers?" rhymes, it's great wordplay actually.

as an aspie i totally get what hes saying

a normal person wouldnt have their windows rolled up when its 80 degrees outside just to listen to music, but an aspie who loves music would
make sense right?

I listened becouse I was curious, I can't say I got what he was saying although I fail to get most rap songs, I thought he may have his windows up to be anti-social. I'd like to know what the noise after the song is all about. It sounded like someone using the restroom, very werid and gross to have at the end of a track like that, turned me right off not that I was ever turned on to begin with.

Maybe eventually he will say that Stan had AS. It kinda fits the stereotype now.

Review: Eminem Is Raw, Honest and Compelling as Ever on 'Revival' Rapper takes stock of his career, says he’s sorry to his daughter and goes off on Trump on ninth LP

Quote:

On "Heat," he unleashes a ridiculous litany of dirty puns ("You got buns, I got Asperger's")
