Ice Cream
Cappadonna Ghostface Killah Raekwon Method Man Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Watch these rap niggas get all up in your guts
French-vanilla, butter-pecan, chocolate-deluxe
Even caramel sundaes is gettin' touched
And scooped in my ice cream truck, Wu tears it up

Yo honey-dips, summertime, fine Jheri drippin'
See you on Pickens with a bunch of chickens how you're clickin'
I catch shootin' strong notes as we got close
She rocked rope, honey throat smellin' like Impulse
Your whole shell baby's wicked like Nimrod
Caught me like a fresh-water scrod, or may I not be God
Attitude is very rude Boo, crabby like seafood
It turns me on like Vassey and Lahrule
They call me Starky Love-hun, check the strategy
By any means, Shirley Temple cross was done by Billie Jean's
Black Misses America, your name is Erica, right true
Lazy eyeball, small piece, six shoe
Caramel complexion, breath smellin' like cinnamon
Excuse me hon, the Don mean no harm, turn around again
God damn, backyard's bangin' like a Benz-why
If I was jiggy, you'd be spotted like Spudz McKenzie
I'm high powered put Adina Howard to sleep
Yo pardon, that bitch been on my mind all week, but uh
Back to you Maybelline Queen let's make a team
You can have anything in this world except CREAM
So whatchu want to do? Whatchu want to do?
Let's go ahead and walk these dogs and represent Wu

Watch these rap niggas get all up in your guts
French-vanilla, butter-pecan, chocolate-deluxe
Even caramel sundaes is gettin' touched
And scooped in my ice cream truck, Wu tears it up

Shaolin's finest, whattup Boo, peace your highness
Yo I'm loungin', big dick style, y'all niggaz is the flyest
Moves you're making too fly jewels are shaking
Not a rape patient, you're looking good fly colored Asian
Ghettos, them is your hometown, we can go the whole round
After that, I'm shootin' downtown
I'm rockin' hats and you wig is all intact
Who's that queen bee chick, eyes curly black
Freaks be movin' in fly sneaks
Two finger rings and gold teeth, and ain't afraid to hold heat
So when I step in the square dear
You better have CREAM to share, Ricans, ven aqui yeah

Watch these rap niggas get all up in your guts
French-vanilla, butter-pecan, chocolate-deluxe
Even caramel sundaes is gettin' touched
And scooped in my ice cream truck, Wu tears it up

Black chocolate girl wonder, shade brown like Thunder
Politic til your deficit step, gimme your number
Your sexy persuasive ta-ta's and thighs
Catch my eyes like highs I want your bodily surprise
Double dime some time, Ice Cream you got me fallin' out
Like a cripple, I love you like I love my dick size
Ooh baby I miss you, your sweet tender touches
Take pulls off the dutches, orgasm in my mindstate
Masterbate in your clutches, I want you for self
Like wealth, so play me closely
Bitches paranoia for the sting, who want the most of me
Only a hard dozen want to be callin' me cousin
Thirsty for my catalog, baby shoppin' spree you're lovin'
Call me if you want to get dug like the pockets
I jizm like a giant break brooms out of their sockets

Wu-Tang in the cut, for real niggaz what?
It's the after party and bitches want to fuck

Watch these rap niggas get all up in your guts

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Ice Cream" by Cappadonna, Ghostface Killah, Method Man, and Raekwon are a celebration of women using of food metaphorical language. The first verse asserts that these rappers will seduce any woman with their French-vanilla, butter-pecan, chocolate-deluxe, and caramel sundae charm. They liken their game to the effectiveness of an ice-cream truck's siren song, enticing women with its sweet tunes. The second and third verses are more descriptive, with each rapper describing the physical attributes and sexual prowess of specific women they've encountered. The song's chorus and ad-libs are a continuation of the metaphor, comparing ice cream flavors to different women getting sexually explored.


The song is both playful and risque, using food-themed innuendos to talk about sex. The rappers use language that is both clever and explicit in describing their conquests. It is a classic example of the hypersexualized nature of much of the hip-hop genre, and the lyrics are best understood in the context of perspective they were coming from. Although the lyrics aren't politically correct by modern standards, they still remain a hip-hop classic.

It's good but not in the top 20.
Above the clouds,
Full clip,
Liquid Swords,
Bang your head (underdog remix),
1-800 suicide,
Furious anger,
Can it be all so simple,
How will I make it,
The worst,
For what it was,
The projects PJays,
Over here,
Les coulisses de l'angoisse,
Mon clan,
Entrer dans la légende,
Cherche pas à comprendre,
Shit squad (live au dome de marseille 2003),
La cavale,
Les petites annonces du carnages,
Le cuir d'une valise usée,
24 heures à vivre

See? not in the top 20 :)



@CT-nb5lm

I love Dudes flow for sure. You know this dude was str8 Pimp before.
His flow on that Ghostface track is still to this very day the best bar dropped imo..
Every verse dude had in those early Wu solo albums was epic.
~Haven't listened to his solo album in detail yet. My 1st listen i wasnt impressed but im gonna go at it again 4sure.
I think The Rza changed when he finally dropped U-god,,inspectahDecks & Capps albums..
I was also not impressed with Inspectah Decks 1st album. I thought for sure id be blown away by it but i wasn't.
I refuse to accpet defeat and gonna relisten..
And i cant even find U-gods 1st album..
If you got a link to the torrent then hit me up.
