[English]

Cuddle me

Don't cut up (ha)

I'm kidding, I'm cutting up over you, baby

So come on

Cuddle me, mm

Cuddle me

Cuddle me 'til the sunrise

Muscle big

Creatine in my thick thighs

Stroking, my ego growing like your, uh

Loving usually make me sick

But, bae, I think I'll make you mine

I'm cutting up real bad though

Might cut up all these photos of us

I ain't never had trust

I'ma call you, come cuddle

So come on and make me lust

Adore me

Don't need to slow down

You know me

Don't need to go there

Come over

D-did I stutter?

Cuddle me

I'm cuttin' up real bad o-over you, baby

I could buy a car that's push-to-start

Bid you art auctioned off at Sotheby's

Cook you rice and be the perfect wife you show off to your family

Shut my mouth, agree to all the things that bother me

A debutante that knows her place and skips the steak to breathe

Inside a dress with high corset that stops below the knee

Or be the one who bears the stress of everyone around me

Delete the texts I know you know you don't want me to see

Just so we pretend that you and me are Peele and Key

But that ain't what you want from me

No, that ain't want you want from me

You want a girl that claps back

A girl that rolls fat, a girl that knows that

Any way I wanna act

Just another one of these

So send me to the streets (yeah)

Cuddle me

Cuddle me 'til the sunrise

Muscle big

Creatine in my thick thighs

Stroking, my ego growing like your, uh

Loving usually make me sick

But, bae, I think I'll make you mine

I'm cutting up real bad though

Might cut up all these photos of us

I ain't never had trust

I'ma call you, come cuddle

So come on and make me lust

Adore me

Don't need to slow down

You know me

Don't need to go there

Come over

D-did I stutter?

Cuddle me

I'm cuttin' up real bad o-over you, baby

  ➔ The word 'might' suggests an uncertain action or a possibility rather than a definite decision.

• A girl that rolls fat, a girl that knows that

• You know me, don't need to go there

  ➔ Elliptical clause (omitting subject and auxiliary verb)

  ➔ The clause 'don't need to go there' omits 'you' as the subject, which is understood from the previous part 'you know me'.

• Cook you rice and be the perfect wife you show off to your family
