Cupcake Lyrics

I'm a motherfucker because I don't give a fuck!
Yow, ow! what the fuck is up!
Yeah, I'm a motherfucker 'cause
I don't give a fuck!
Yo, my man, what the fuck is up?
What the fuck is up? What the fuck is up?
What the fuck is going on in this town?
Big bloody wallet full of snakes
goddam cupcakes on fire
goddam cheesecake in my jeans!
(aw, save that for later)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think its about a fuckin fat guy who was blocked up cuz he ate too much cheeze cake, took some exlax, and shat his pants. But farted so hard that he pooped blood and it seeped into his wallet full of snakes.
