Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What you do for money?
She say he whip an escalade
What you do for money?
"Woo woo woo" like Fantasia
She can't do 2 for 20
Applebee's, not for me
Don't worry about what's on my plate
Worry about what's on your plate
Big ballers, big spending
What you do for money?
"Woo woo woo" like Fantasia
Can't do 2 for 20
Applebee's, not for me
Might take the cheesecake
Don't worry about what's on my plate
Worry about what's on your plate
St. Louis to New Mexico
Can't hit her line
Get dial tone
Couldn't reach me on your tippy toes
Up and leave
That's how it goes
She do tricks
Make money flip
VVS is on her wrist
Hit a lick and then she dips (and then she dips)
I said took a flight to NYC (I took a flight to NYC)
There's no one here 2 notice me (no one here)
No Cream of the Wheat
Inside cream of the crop
Top Ramen, no bueno
Top off
Grillz got me cheesin' a lot (uh huh)
St. Louis to New Mexico
Cant hit her line
Get dial tone
Couldn't reach me on your tippy toes
Up and leave
That's how it goes
She do tricks
Make money flip
VVS is on her wrist
Hit a lick and then she dips (and then she dips)
She say he whip an escalade
What you do for money?
"Woo woo woo" like Fantasia
She can't do 2 for 20
Applebee's, not for me
Might take the cheesecake
Don't worry about what's on my plate
Worry about what's on your plate
Big ballers, big spending
What you do for money?
"Woo woo woo" like Fantasia
Can't do 2 for 20
Applebee's, not for me
Might take the cheesecake
Don't worry about what's on my plate
Worry about what's on your plate
I thought a b with no lashes had something to say
Oh, it's said sum
I thought a b with no lashes said sum
The lyrics to pinkcaravan!'s song "cheesecake" depict a confident and unapologetic attitude towards money and materialism. The lines "big ballers, big spending, what you do for money?" and "woo woo woo like Fantasia" suggest that the singer is questioning what others are willing to do in order to acquire wealth and luxury. They express a sense of superiority and dismissive attitude towards those who can't afford expensive outings like Applebee's.
The lines "might take the cheesecake, don't worry about what's on my plate, worry about what's on your plate" further amplify the theme of materialism. The singer seems to suggest that their own prosperity and indulgence should take priority over others' concerns or judgments.
The second verse introduces a new location, from St. Louis to New Mexico, and describes a person who is elusive and hard to reach. The lyrics also describe someone who is skilled at making money and leaving without a trace. The mention of VVS (very very slightly included) diamonds on the person's wrist emphasizes their wealth and prosperity.
Overall, "cheesecake" portrays a confident individual who is unapologetic about their pursuit of money and material possessions. The lyrics emphasize a disregard for societal norms and a focus on personal gain.
