This song is about rebelling against your parents and doing whatever you want, becoming a rebellious child. The meaning behind the title is about being made up of mistakes for going against the rules.🤍
Rotten Milk" is an unreleased song by Melanie Martinez. It was originally intended to be featured on her debut studio album, Cry Baby. However, it was later scrapped. The full song leaked on July 22nd, 2021. According to the producer, Cubby, the leaked file of the song is missing certain stems. Some stems included in the original 2014 production were corrupted. Although he was able to export the song again in 2021 which led to its leak later that year, he stated that the plugin he used for the drums in 2014 had stopped working on his computer.[citation needed] Theme This song is about a grown man who still relies heavily on his mother and has not learned how to take care of himself. He is depicted as immature and unable to handle adult responsibilities such as buying groceries or finding a job. The song addresses the idea that this behavior is not normal or acceptable, despite the man's belief that it is. The chorus shows his fear of losing his mother and how he feels lost without her. Throughout this song, Melanie mocks the man for still relying on his mother at an adult age and being unable to take care of himself. Lyrics [Verse 1] Twenty five year old watching Looney Tunes Waiting for a job as you play with your food Wondering why your fridge is so full of filth Cookies filled with bugs and cartons of rotten milk [Pre-chorus] Stop whining, you're a grown man Mother needs to let go of your hand Have you heard what's going on outside? Water guns aren't why people die Stop whining, you're a grown man Mother needs to let go of your hand Have you heard what's going on outside? Water guns aren't why people die [Chorus] Mama, mama, please help me Still don't know how to brush my teeth Finding love is hard, you see So mother, don't you die on me Rotten milk tastes good to me Don't know how to buy groceries This is normal, can't you see? But mama, you cannot leave me [Verse 2] Mother's on a walker, still tucks you in Working nine to five, your outline is a sin You're crying for your bottle of Xanax and tequila Finding girls on Craigslist like your ex girl, Rita [Pre-chorus] Stop whining, you're a grown man Mother needs to let go of your hand Have you heard what's going on outside? Water guns aren't why people die Stop whining, you're a grown man Mother needs to let go of your hand Have you heard what's going on outside? Water guns aren't why people die [Chorus] You say "Mama, mama, please help me Still don't know how to brush my teeth Finding love is hard, you see So mother, don't you die on me Rotten milk tastes good to me Don't know how to buy groceries This is normal, can't you see? But mama, you cannot leave me" [Bridge] Rotten teeth, trick or treat Mom, make me food to eat Monsters in the closet Showers from sink faucets My girl's super sweet, seventeen No that ain't a crime to me She makes me Hot Pockets while I play with rockets [Chorus] Mama, mama, please help me Still don't know how to brush my teeth Finding love is hard, you see So mother, don't you die on me Rotten milk tastes good to me Don't know how to buy groceries This is normal, can't you see? But mama, you cannot leave me
It’s my favorite song ever! And I didn’t know it had different versions apart from the first one. Btw, Are these versions official versions by Melanie or are they fanmade?
she has said before that she dose not hate them, most of them she never released as people leaked them before she ever publicly had a chance to herself making her feel that their was no point in including it in an album as its already been leaked
Okay but all of these with the chorus are edits. Not real studio versions. The chorus vocals are filtered from live performances (edited by fans) At least use the real version.
Can you please delete this? I'm sure Melanie wouldn't be happy at all if she saw this. She has literally said before that she feels uncomfortable when people leak/listen to her unreleased songs so please, delete this and don't do it again. ❤
This song was intended to be in the crybaby album. When Melanie said she doesn’t want us listening to her unreleased songs, she was referring to those that were going to be on her upcoming album. (Some songs from Portals were leaked pre-album release). Her newer songs do not fit this style and she has stated that portals is the end of crybaby’s story, meaning that songs like this are bound to NEVER come out. It is okay if you listen to select unreleased songs that will certainly not come out.
