[English]

I'm tired of these motherfuckers at the Krusty Krab always tellin' me

"Larry ain't 'bout this", "Larry ain't 'bout that"

Shut the fuck up

Y'all motherfuckers ain't no shit

My boy a fuckin' lifter

You know he roll with Sam Sulek and them

Lo- lo- lo- lobster gang

Let's talk about a bitch fish, Larry never been one

Sick of all these rich kids acting like they demons

Way they Malcom Mid, bitch, I'm getting in between 'em

Larry at the gym, bitch, they never fucking seen one

Yeah, I took the fish to school, now they used to the bell

You know when you the shit, you get used to the smell

It burn when I lift, so I gotta raise hell

They forgot that I was him, I'm the ghost in the shell

Larry large model, make 'em DeepSeek

Larry is the shit, bitch, he put the G in PT

It's never black and white with these kids, a hee' hee'

They know that it's Levels when I spit, Avicii

Yeah, I had to up the iron, put the weight down

We in Hall of Meat, bro, the way I made 'em skate out

He said he was 'Himothy', I told him "that's a fake noun"

I flushed him, fuck a skibidi, I'll show him how I make brown

Yeah, my choppa find a way to turn a way to turn an opp to powder

Had to cut 'em like a steak, bro, we porterhouse'd 'em

Know there's something in my veins, but we won't talk about it

We at Goon Lagoon now, brother, I'm pussy drowning

Let's talk about a bitch fish, Larry never been one

Sick of all these rich kids acting like they demons

Way they Malcom Mid, bitch, I'm getting in between 'em

Larry at the gym, bitch, they never fucking seen one

Yeah, I took the fish to school, now they used to the bell

You know when you the shit, you get used to the smell

It burn when I lift, so I gotta raise hell

They forgot that I was him, I'm the ghost in the shell

I'ma grab the chrome, send that boy to Davey Jones

I don't care about your chain, bro, I'm out here snatching souls

If they mentionin' my name, I appear and let 'em know

We don't Kid Cudi stick, got a pussy seeing ghosts

My choppa Dave Chapelle, turn an oppa to a joke

Ayo Dutchy, they want smoke

Alright, I'll pop out like the Pope

I don't needa' kick the door in, I just walk right through the wall

And she said my dick enormous, and it's green like The Hulk

I don't wanna see no beast die, I ressurect 'em all

I don't wanna see the streets die, I wanna see a war

You get one of these one time, don't be asking for no more

Don't come bitchin' to me cryin', I don't wanna hear you talk

Let's talk about a bitch fish, Larry never been one

Sick of all these rich kids acting like they demons

Way they Malcom Mid, bitch, I'm getting in between 'em

Larry at the gym, bitch, they never fucking seen one

Yeah, I took the fish to school, now they used to the bell

You know when you the shit, you get used to the smell

It burn when I lift, so I gotta raise hell

They forgot that I was him, I'm the ghost in the shell

Key Grammar Structures

• I'm tired of these motherfuckers at the Krusty Krab always tellin' me

  ➔ Be tired of + Gerund (Present Participle)

  ➔ This structure expresses being fed up or weary with something. "tellin'" is an informal short form of "telling", a present participle used as a gerund after the preposition "of".

• Larry never been one

  ➔ Present Perfect (Omitted Auxiliary) + Pronoun "one"

  ➔ In informal speech, the auxiliary verb "has" or "have" is often omitted, especially when referring to a past experience, as seen with ""never been"". The pronoun ""one"" is used to replace a previously mentioned noun, in this case, "a bitch fish".

• now they used to the bell

  ➔ Be used to + Noun (Familiarity)

  ➔ This structure indicates that someone or something is accustomed or familiar with something. Here, ""used to"" is followed by the noun phrase "the bell", meaning they are now familiar with the sound of the bell. It is distinct from "used to + base verb" (indicating a past habit).

• You know when you the shit, you get used to the smell

  ➔ Get used to + Noun (Process of Familiarity)

  ➔ This structure describes the process of becoming accustomed or familiar with something. ""get used to"" implies a transition or change, meaning you are in the process of adapting to "the smell" because "you the shit" (an idiom meaning you are excellent).

• make 'em DeepSeek

  ➔ Causative Verb "make"

  ➔ The causative verb ""make"" is used to show that someone or something causes another person or thing to perform an action. It is followed by an object ("'em", informal for "them") and then the base form of the verb ("DeepSeek").

• we porterhouse'd 'em

  ➔ Noun Verbification (Creating a Verb from a Noun)

  ➔ This is an example of verbification, where a noun ("porterhouse", a type of steak) is creatively used as a verb by adding the past tense suffix "-'d". It implies an action associated with that noun, in this context, cutting or treating someone severely, like preparing a steak.

• I'm out here snatching souls

  ➔ "Be out here" + Present Participle (Current Action/Situation)

  ➔ ""Be out here"" is an informal idiom used to emphasize that the speaker is currently engaged in an activity or existing in a particular state, often implying a public or active role. It's followed by a present participle ("snatching") describing the ongoing action.

• If they mentionin' my name, I appear and let 'em know

  ➔ Conditional Sentence (Type 0/1) + Informal Present Participle

  ➔ This sentence uses an ""If"" clause to express a condition. ""mentionin'"" is an informal short form of "mentioning," acting as a present participle that implies an ongoing or repeated action. The structure (If + present simple, present simple/future simple) functions as a Type 0 (general truth) or Type 1 (likely future event) conditional.

• I don't wanna see no beast die

  ➔ Double Negative for Emphasis (Informal) + Verb of Perception + Object + Base Form Verb

  ➔ In informal English, a ""double negative"" ("don't... no") is sometimes used for emphasis rather than cancelling each other out, reinforcing the strong negative feeling. ""Wanna"" is an informal contraction of "want to". Additionally, verbs of perception like ""see"" can be followed by an object ("no beast") and a base form verb ("die") to describe an action that is being perceived.

• Don't come bitchin' to me cryin'

  ➔ Verb "come" + Present Participle (Informal Idiomatic Expression)
