Melanie Martinez – Notebook Lyrics 2 years ago
I believe that this song is about a toxic relationship. Crybaby is dating a guy who thinks he's always right and doesn't understand the lesson when it's right in front of his eyes. He doesn't mean any "I love you's" that he says, and there's pretty much no point in the relationship as at night she just lays next to a friend that occasionally fcks her. Crybaby tries to teach him how to keep a girl like her with him.

Melanie Martinez – Detention Lyrics 2 years ago
This is about having to pretend everything's alright and that it's literally hell, or, as implied in this song, "pretending everything's alright is detention". She may have to pretend everything's alright because she's a celebrity, or possibly just because.

Melanie Martinez – Orange Juice Lyrics 2 years ago
This song is about bulimia. Fleur is pressured by Kelly and other people in the "popular b itch girl group" to develop bulimia. She feels as if she isn't enough until Crybaby swaps eyes with her to help Fleur see the truth about it, or to help view her body the same way Crybaby does. Crybaby explains to Fleur that "our bodies don't define us. They're just temporary."

Melanie Martinez – Lunchbox Friends Lyrics 2 years ago
This song is simply about fake friends. Lunchbox Friends wanna be Crybaby's best friend but then judge her if she smokes a little bit of weed, they talk sh it about girls they don't even know. She wants a real friendship that will last forever.

Melanie Martinez – Strawberry Shortcake Lyrics 2 years ago
This song is about Crybaby going against how people say it's her fault for getting sexually harassed because she "put icing on top" or dressed fancy. She talks about how even if your skirt is too short or your shoulders are exposed, it's never your fault. She gets pressured to have shiny clean legs and stuff her bra, but then people say it's her fault when she gets sexually harassed for it.

A comment about the meaning, even if a woman is NAKED, it's still never her fault.

"Instead of making me feel bad for the body I got just teach him to keep it in his pants and tell him to stop".

Melanie Martinez – Nurse's Office Lyrics 2 years ago
This is about how Crybaby gets bullied but the teachers and staff won't do anything about it, so Crybaby has to fake her illnesses in order for her to go to the Nurse's Office and then home. She's tired of wishing she was ditching.

Melanie Martinez – Show and Tell Lyrics 2 years ago
This song is about how people treat celebrities like they're not really human. "I'm just like you, you're like me, imperfect and human are we" indicates is about how just because Melanie is a celebrity, that doesn't mean she's different from us. She's a human too and she's just like us and doesn't deserve to be treated any differently. "There are strangers taking pictures of me when I ask no more" is about how people take pictures of her without asking and apparently it's viewed as acceptable just because she's a famous celebrity.

Melanie Martinez – Class Fight Lyrics 2 years ago
In the music video / movie, it shows Crybaby talking to Brendon when Kelly sees the situation. Kelly goes and slaps her, and cuts her arm, when Crybaby's eyes turn completely black, indicating she is about to use her powers. She levitates Kelly and uses her Telekinesis to manipulate her hair and choke Kelly.

Basically, jealousy.

Melanie Martinez – Cake Lyrics 2 years ago
This song is about Crybaby being in a toxic relationship with a person who just wants her for the sex and thinks of her as a piece of cake that he can just discard and walk away with the frosting of her heart, and leave Crybaby to feel used. The relationship has all of the ingredients except him loving and needing Crybaby. She finally says that if she's just a piece of cake to him, then he's just a piece of meat to her.

Melanie Martinez – Teddy Bear Lyrics 2 years ago
This could be interpreted literally, as Crybaby literally having a teddy bear, or this could be interpreted as a real person. Crybaby gives love to the teddy bear, but Crybaby finds crumbled pictures of her and knives under the sheets, realizing teddy bear wants to kill her.

Melanie Martinez – Play Date Lyrics 2 years ago
This song is about a toxic relationship in which Crybaby truly loves and cares about this person, but they just think of her as a "play date" which if interpreted sexually, may mean they just want her for sex and think of her as just a sex toy. Crybaby knows this relationship is toxic and not healthy, but she still doesn't want it to end. "If I share my toys will you let me stay, don't wanna leave this play date with you".

submissions
Melanie Martinez – Mad Hatter Lyrics 2 years ago
This song is about Crybaby accepting her crazy self. She doesn't care that she is crazy, and implies that "all the best people are crazy".

In the music video, this is the first time where her eyes appear to be completely black, which appears when she uses her powers.

Melaine Adele Martinez – Mrs Potato Head Lyrics 2 years ago
In the music video, it shows Crybaby feeling like she isn't pretty enough and wanting plastic surgery until she sees the horror story of Mrs. Potato Head on TV and realizes she is beautiful enough and doesn't need plastic surgery to be beautiful.

"Sexual, hey girl if you wanna feel sexual, you can always call up a professional" suggests that Crybaby feels like you need plastic surgery to get a man to get sexual with you. At least that's how I interpreted it.

"If you want a little more confidence, potatoes turn to french fries yeah it's common sense" the potatoes turning to french fries suggests how mrs potato head started off as a potato, but got plastic surgery and is now a french fry. That sounds kinda funny thinking about it in my head but I'm pretty sure that's what the lyrics suggest.

Melanie Martinez – Pacify Her Lyrics 2 years ago
This song is about Crybaby being jealous of Basic Bitch. She likes Blue Boy, but he is taken by Basic Bitch. In the music video, Crybaby continuously stares seductively as Blue Boy, and then teleports a note to Blue Boy, but Basic Bitch gets mad at Crybaby for the note. Crybaby immediately levitates a chess board and throws it towards basic bitch (first time crybaby's powers are shown). Blue Boy and Basic Bitch continue on talking until Crybaby starts ripping heads off of dolls, and then taking off her own head in order to impress Blue Boy, and Blue Boy almost gets with Crybaby instead, but Basic Bitch wins him over with her breasts.

This is where Crybaby's Telekinesis is first shown, as in the music video, Crybaby levitates a chess board and throws it towards basic bitch, and Crybaby takes off her head and I'm not sure why nobody considers that powers because I'm pretty sure humans aren't supposed to be able to do that.

However, this is not where her powers were shown the first time, as Crybaby levitates in Carousel.

Melanie Martinez – Milk and Cookies Lyrics 2 years ago
This song is simply about Crybaby poisoning the Big Bad Wolf, who had previously kidnapped Crybaby in Tag, You're It.

"1, 2, Melatonin's coming for you" Crybaby's previous name was supposed to be Melatonin. This could also simply suggest the actual vitamin.

"11, 12, I pull off black so well" could be a reference to people wearing black at funerals.

This could be about a toxic relationship, but that would be a second meaning, very different as to what the music video and lyrics suggest.

submissions
Melanie Martinez – Tag, You're It Lyrics 2 years ago
This song talks about Crybaby getting kidnapped, and there is also suggested rape. "Grabbed my hand, pushed me down, took the words right out my mouth" suggests rape, as big bad wolf took the word "no" out of crybaby's mouth after pushing her down by her hands. The main part is talking about kidnapping though. Fun fact, the same person who plays the store clerk in Tag, You're It music video also plays Angelita in K-12.

"I can taste your skin in my teeth" may mean that she tried to bite him in self defense.

Melanie Martinez – Soap Lyrics 2 years ago
Crybaby accidentally says too much when talking to Johnny. She wants to confess, but is too scared. She's tired of having to be careful about what she says around him. Eventually, she says too much and it "overflows". She accidentally brings up love, and explains it as "throwing a toaster in the bathtub, as she's said too much again.

Basically, she's scared that she'll say too much and accidentally confess to Johnny and is tired of having to "play games" and be careful about what she says.

submissions
Melanie Martinez – Alphabet Boy Lyrics 2 years ago
I believe the song is just a little "fuck you" toward this "alphabet boy", which I will safely assume is crybaby's boyfriend. This boy thinks that he's superior to her with all his bad poetry, and that she's a little kid who needs to be taught everything. This could be misogyny, or simply alphabet boy thinking crybaby is stupid and needs to be taught everything when she really doesn't.
