Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Judgemental cunt
Select your potion
Stay tuned, stay tuned
Stay tuned, stay tuned
You′re just some fucked up little kid
Everywhere he goes loser little kid
Verted kid, hating everybody type of kid
Look at you dumb punk loser kid
You ain′t never going to be shit somebody told you lies
Can't hear a thing
Too preoccupied sipping kerosene
Stay tuned, stay tuned
Stay tuned, stay tuned
You're just some loser little boy
Can′t ever do a damn thing right you′ll never be shit
Thank God, little loser loser boy
And you'll never be anything but a fucking low life
Look at you dumb stoner little boy
You′ll never be nothing again don't get this shit twisted
Oh we shall see
What fate shall bring
Stay tuned, stay tuned
Stay tuned, stay tuned
Yow, yow, help me, yow, how, yow, hey!
Yow, yow-yyow-yow-yow, how, yow, how how how, hey!
Hey! Hey!
Choose your potion
The lyrics to Kid Cudi's "Judgmental C**t" depict a scene where the singer is being judged and berated by someone who sees him as a failure and a loser. The person calling him names and telling him he will never amount to anything is referred to as a "judgmental cunt," a derogatory term for someone who is critical and judgmental of others. The first stanza addresses this person directly, taunting them to "select [their] potion," possibly suggesting that the person is hypocritical or two-faced, and is choosing different personas to be spiteful towards others.
The second stanza describes the singer as a "fucked up little kid" who will "never ever be shit." The insults continue, calling him a "loser little kid," a "verted kid," and a hater. The person insulting the singer seems to see themselves as superior and mocks the singer's dreams and aspirations. The third stanza again repeats the insults, calling the singer a "loser little boy," a "stoner little boy," and stating that he will "never be anything but a fucking low life." The singer's response to this is ambiguous, as he acknowledges that fate may bring something unexpected.
Overall, the song appears to be a response to people who have doubted and criticized Kid Cudi's talent and ability to achieve success in the music industry. The lyrics express frustration and anger towards these people, while also acknowledging the possibility of unforeseeable events that could change the singer's fate. The repetition of "stay tuned" throughout the song emphasizes the idea that Kid Cudi is still fighting to prove himself and his talents to the world.
