Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Whoa Kenny
Hello? Rico! Yeah, Rico!
What? Rico! Huh yeah, Rico!

With some white bitches screaming YOLO
Lemonade for the shade, Jesus saves, I don't
Pussy taste like ice cream, come and get this strawberry yum-yum
Put it in his face, now he got a candy crush

I call that a sugar rush, he call I'm his sugar plum
He call me his little princess, I call him my sponsor
He know that I'm crazy, he call me his little monster
Bitches ain't even eating pasta, bitch I'm eating lobster

Yeah yeah
I'm the ice cream truck
When the niggas see me, all the boys want some
All the niggas want reed, bitch your boyfriend sucks
I seen a nigga tweet me, I was like, "Ew! What the fuck"?
Huh huh-huh
I'm the ice cream truck
When the niggas see me, all the boys want some
All the niggas want reed, bitch your boyfriend sucks
I seen a nigga tweet me, I was like, "Ew! What the fuck?"
Huh yeah

He tried it, I denied it like shit, duh
He text my phone I ain't replying like shit
That nigga broke, I can tell, it's like a sixth sense
Bitches real mad but, how more mad can you get?
In real life I'm a shark, you a goldfish
Here's my dick real quick, can you hold it?
Haters these days getting bolder and bolder
Got the weight of the world on my shoulders
But I'm still

I'm the ice cream truck
When the niggas see me, all the boys want some
All the niggas want reed, bitch your boyfriend sucks
I seen a nigga tweet me, I was like, "Ew! What the fuck?"
Huh huh-huh
I'm the ice cream truck
When the niggas see me, all the boys want some
All the niggas want reed, bitch your boyfriend sucks
I seen a nigga tweet me, I was like, "Ew! What the fuck?"
Huh yeah

Hello?
