Line by Line Meaning

Here's one for the ladies
Starting off the song, Cheese Richard addresses the audience, hinting that the song may have controversial or provocative content.


Rape me
This is the central theme of the song, with Cheese Richard daring the listener to violate him. The choice of such a taboo topic is meant to provoke and shock the audience.


Rape me, my friend
Addressing someone familiar as a 'friend' while daring them to 'rape' him is an oxymoron that further highlights the provocative nature of the song.


Come on, rape me
The repeated use of the verb 'rape' and the imperative tone of the line create a sense of urgency and intensity, making the listener uncomfortable.


Rape me, again
Repeating the provocative line further reinforces how the song is meant to shock and offend.


I'm not the only one
Cheese Richard indicates that he is not alone in his taboo desires, hinting that others might share his fetishes and kinks.


No uh uh uh uh
The repeated 'uh uh' sounds create a disapproving and judgmental tone, contrasting with the previous lines and suggesting that the desires expressed in the song are wrong.


Hate me
Switching from the subject of rape to hate, Cheese Richard expresses a self-destructive desire for rejection and negativity from others.


Do it and do it again
Repetition plays a big role in this song, and the lines 'do it' and 'again' are meant to provoke and challenge the listener to indulge in their worst impulses.


Waste me
Cheese Richard employs a contradictory expression, asking to be 'wasted' while still alive. This echoes the theme of self-destruction and the desire for pain and humiliation.


Taste me, my friend
Once again calling the listener 'friend' in a context that is inappropriate and unsettling, Cheese Richard offers himself up as an object of desire and consumption, further sexualizing the song.


My favorite inside source
This line adds to the unnerving tone of the song, with Cheese Richard implying that he has an inside source of information and knowledge about his listeners and their secrets.


I'll kiss your open sores
Taking the shock value even further, this line suggests a grotesque sexual act that is meant to repulse and offend the listener.


Appreciate your concern
This line is meant to be sarcastic, as Cheese Richard shows contempt and disregard for the listener's 'concern'. It further adds to the overall sense of provocation and defiance of social norms.


You'll always stink and burn
Finishing the controversial verse, Cheese Richard hammers home the sense of disgust and negativity that permeates the song, suggesting that everyone is destined to fail and suffer.


Ow! Rape me
Adding a vocalization of physical pain to the repeated line, this line is meant to create an even greater sense of discomfort and unease in the listener.


Everyone!
This line is another form of provocation, as Cheese Richard calls to everyone, daring them to indulge in their dark desires.


Rape me
Repeating the central theme even more vigorously, this line pushes the envelope of what is acceptable and appropriate even further.


Put your hands together! (clapping to beat)
The instruction to clap to the beat of the song adds a sense of rhythm and urgency, making the provocative theme of the song even more uncomfortable.


Rape me again!
With an even more intense repetition of the main theme, Cheese Richard challenges the listener even further, daring them to accept their dark desires and act on them.


Are-A-PE Me!
A play on words that emphasizes the central theme of the song even more explicitly, this line is another example of the provocative and shocking content of this song.


Rape rape rape rape rape rape rape rape rape rape
The final line of the song pushes the envelope of what is acceptable even further, with a repetition of the forbidden word that is meant to shock and offend the listener as much as possible.

As someone who is a surivior of Sexual Assault, this is literally the first time I have ever laughed about my trauma. I used to live in so much fear of the guy who did it, but now I know he's a coward, and I could truly beat his ass. Thank you so much Richard Cheese, love this genre of music!

@icecreamwasabi

When I heard Kurt’s song & the intentions of it I was angry bc I felt the anger in the song, I even felt stronger knowing that I will get past of what happened to me. We are stronger than we once were, sure this cover is hilarious but I love the meaning behind the song really; “You can hurt me all you want, I’m not afraid of you anymore.” You can beat the guys ass, I’m rooting for you!

@huxlee3947

I used to go driving around, car packed with my friends, blaring this and everyone laughing like hyenas. Those were the days

@ineedsomesleep1761

That sounds like a lot of fun and i would do it myself. The problem is that some friends of mine get offended so easily.
