Gingerbread Man Lyrics

I'm frosting
I don't need a man to make my life sweet
Prince charming
Just isn't the one that I think I need
You're thirsty
You think I give out all my shit for free
I'm bursting
Out laughing at idiocy

I need a gingerbread man, the one I'll feed
The gingerbread man, the one I'll eat
One who's always crazy
Never calls me baby
That's the one that I want
All you boys are not him, him

Can't you see?
I only want the ones who never see me
But I'm happy
I love playing these games until my heart bleeds
It bleeds jelly
Cause you don't want someone to eat your cookie
Can someone please
Find him for me, find him for me?

I need a gingerbread man, the one I'll feed
The gingerbread man, the one I'll eat
One who's always crazy
Never calls me baby
That's the one that I want
All you boys are not him, him

I'm the icing covering his body
I wanna hold him so close, so tightly
Baby, how do I say this politely?
Love me harder and don't be nice, please
I wanna feel your crumbs on my body
I want to break you in pieces. Fight me
Baby, don't be so scared of biting
Want to eat each other into nothing

I need a gingerbread man, the one I'll feed
The gingerbread man, the one I'll eat
One who's always crazy
Never calls me baby
That's the one that I want
All you boys are not him, him

My Opinion
Cover art for Gingerbread Man lyrics by Melanie Martinez

My interpretation of gingerbread man: "I'm frosting, I don't need a man to make my life sweet. " -She is saying that she doesn't need a man to be happy.

"Prince charming just isn't the one that I think I need." -that "perfect boy" isn't the one she wants.

"You're thirsty, You think I give out all my shit for free."- she is describing the "jock/jerk" or "player" and isn't the type what she is looking in for a boy either.

"I'm bursting Out laughing at idiocy"- she doesn't like those options that she said for a boy she wants.

"I need a gingerbread man, the one I'll feed" - she needs a person who is at her level, the one she'll take care.

"The gingerbread man, the one I'll eat" -THE man, she'd like to please.

"One who's always crazy Never calls me baby"- the man who is at her level of craziness and can't say anything about it.

"That's the one that I want All you boys are not him, him"- that's the guy she wants, the options she mentioned are nothing like him.

"Can't you see? I only want the ones who never see me"-she is saying that she likes the ones who aren't interested or notice her.

"But I'm happy I love playing these games until my heart bleeds"- she okay with it until she gets her heart broken.

"It bleeds jelly Cause you don't want someone to eat your cookie"- this guy doesn't want to give up to her.

"Can someone please Find him for me, find him for me?"- she is tried of seeing these other guys who aren't the "Gingerbread man".

"I need a gingerbread man, the one I'll feed The gingerbread man, the one I'll eat One who's always crazy Never calls me baby That's the one that I want All you boys are not him, him"

"I'm the icing covering his body"- almost like she completes him, the "cherry on top" type of reference.

"I wanna hold him so close, so tightly Baby, how do I say this politely? Love me harder and don't be nice, please"-she wants to express for love with sex.

"I wanna feel your crumbs on my body I want to break you in pieces. Bite me Baby, don't be so scared of biting Want to eat each other into nothing" she is telling hint that to not be scared of being freaky.

"I need a gingerbread man, the one I'll feed The gingerbread man, the one I'll eat One who's always crazy Never calls me baby That's the one that I want All you boys are not him, him"
