This is by far the worst lyric in the song. Terrible. Chris Brown? More like Chris Clown!
What is this? Oh my god. Why? This is the definition of cringe. Oh man.
And this is one of the more tame lyrics in the song...
These lyrics are very immature in my opinion. It doesn't sound like an adult actually wrote these lyrics.
Potty? I didn't know a two-year-old ghostwrote this.
Who wrote this, a three-year-old?
Your foot stinks from stepping in dog poop.
I'm going to vomit after listening to this.
As much as Gorilla Zoe is terrible, I had no idea he was that stupid that some of his lyrics sound like they are straight out of a Submarine Man song. This is embarrassing.
Sounds like a 6-year-old who just learned how to swear.
Now this is just embarrassing.
This entire song is a cringe fest. Also, these "wonderful" lyrics were said by Skepta, a guy who I actually thought said intelligent stuff. Really, Skepta?
If chocolate milk makes you fart then it's a sign that your music is trash.
Nobody needed to know that, Kodak. Every time I start to think Kodak might have some potential, I find a lyric like this.
Why are three-year-olds writing songs again?
I like Hopsin, but even I can't let this one slide.
I like J. Cole but boy, what were you thinking? The song title describes this line perfectly.
At least the song has a fitting name.
Oh my God, Cole. Disgusting is right!
While this song isn't bad by any means, this is still cringy because it doesn't make sense outside of The Greatest Showman.
Yeah, pretty sure you did, Eric, as all your songs are about that.
What's even worse is how he tried to explain this lyric. "I wanted to say a cello because I thought that was the instrument Squidward plays, but it ain't, that's a flute!" Squidward doesn't play a cello or a flute, Lil Yachty! How could you fail so badly? What's next, is Lil Yachty going to claim that he thought Brian Griffin was a cat?
