YUNGATA 14,955 Posted March 5, 2013 I just don't think p-p-pepsi would make sense. L-l-let’s do drugs Make love with our teachers Come on now and tell me where his tattooed-ass beat ya I’m a fan of pro-ana nation I do them drugs to stop the f-food cravings If you wanna get high with me, I’m in the back Doing crack, drinking vodka / P-P-Pepsi That verse is all about being a badass at boarding school, why would she talk about drinking pepsi while doing crack? Because she's still a child in boarding school. She thinks she grown up taking drugs and sleeping with teachers and yeah she does think she's badass but her drinking pepsi kind of reminds us that she's meant to still be a young lolita type figure. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PrettyBaby 2,220 Posted March 5, 2013 I never heard "Yale" before watching the live video, but now I hear it in the studio version too. It's definitely "Tommy with his tattoo-ed ass feature" (not sure of the words immediately before that, but I think "Come on little"). Also definitely "p-p-Pepsi." The first vowel is not "ah" or a short "o" like in vodka. If anything it's a short "a" (like in Pabst ). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It wasn't my intention to imply that Trash was on the wrong side of all of those lyric disputes, but I hope no one's taking any of this that seriously.

Monicker 3,035 Posted March 5, 2013 I just don't think p-p-pepsi would make sense. That verse is all about being a badass at boarding school, why would she talk about drinking pepsi while doing crack? Because she's being cute and playful and maybe even a little nonsensical in that cute and playful kind of way "P-P-Pepsi"/"vodka Pepsi" is the new "axiom/accion". Vodka Pepsi is to evilentity what neon reservations is to PrettyBaby. Keep fighting the good fight, you guys.

Hundred Dollar Bill 21,805 Posted March 9, 2013 That verse is all about being a badass at boarding school, why would she talk about drinking pepsi while doing crack? Because Pepsi is what her pussy tastes like, duh I just don't think p-p-pepsi would make sense. L-l-let’s do drugs Make love with our teachers Come on now and tell me where his tattooed-ass beat ya I’m a fan of pro-ana nation I do them drugs to stop the f-food cravings If you wanna get high with me, I’m in the back Doing crack, drinking vodka / P-P-Pepsi That verse is all about being a badass at boarding school, why would she talk about drinking pepsi while doing crack? She stutters other words in the verse too, so why not P-P-Pepsi? It makes more sense to me that it'd be stuttered to go with L-l-let's & f-food. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wryta Thinkpiece 3,344 Posted June 4, 2013 So bear with me as I try not to look like an idiot.Numero uno, I hear "Come on, baby, tell me where his tattooed-ass beat ya." It's right based on my biased support of it because I just find it sexier.That Yale line...I hear it, and I also hear "Yeah/Yo, that's/it's not a problem, let's solve it." I do hear "love," but not too often.I also think that when she's saying the "not a problem, let's solve it," it'd segue into the tutor lyric if we instead think of it as the "you" of the song like a student (obvi Lana) having difficulty with figuring out/solving something that's otherwise very simple (which makes it a problem for them), and Lana (from the scandalous teacher's perspective) is just basically saying, "It's very simple, let's do it together," since "let's" is short for "let us," so basically the teacher is..."helping" Lana with his expertise because she's having a bit of a problem with what would be a cakewalk for him.Which, whether the problem is getting the scholarship itself or getting into Yale (because she can't get the scholarship because she doesn't have the grades to get it) is the problem, my interpretation is, basically, that sex between her and the teacher is being traded so that way he gives her the grades/letter of recommendation to get the scholarship and/or get into Yale...because I'm pretty sure not too many people are doing crack in the back of the school and acing As all across the board.So...yeah... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
