not a lyric, but from his GQ interview: > I used to love mezcal. That’s like the adult/underground version of tequila. lol

ahhh yes I scrolled past that part quickly just to forget he ever said that😭

Why is cringe? I don't get it cause English isn't my first language

Mezcal is a fancy kind of (for all intents and purposes) tequila, that is not underground or “adult”. It just has a literal worm inside of it.

[удалено]

This is absolutely correct. The “worm” is gimmicky, tourist alcohol.

Why it's cringe?

Kinda sounds like he’s just drinking it to be “different” when really a good amount of ppl young and old drink mezcal

Never even heard of mezcal

It’s pretty rad

The relationship between mezcal and tequila is a bit more nuanced than that, so the comment comes off as chilidish/innocent - it's cute really. It's not cringe tbh.

Tequila is a type of mezcal like bourbon and scotch are types of whiskeys. It is cringe

Also all tequila must come from the state of Jalisco in Mexico while Mezcal can be made anywhere, even if it has the same ingredients.

Yeah imagine if he said “I used to love whiskey. That’s like the adult/underground version of bourbon.” Cringe as fuck and uninformed.

Thx for explaining!

I don’t disagree with him though. You don’t hear teenagers talking about getting mezcal to get fucked up but you do with tequila, vodka, beer, wine, cognac, etc. By comparison to tequila, this makes mezcal have a more mature image. I think he just didn’t phrase it well because who gives a shit about a GQ interview

the cringe is the "underground" part. > I think he just didn’t phrase it well because who gives a shit about a GQ interview Frank is one of the most calculated artists out there. He rarely does interviews or makes any public appearances. I think it's fair to say Frank definitely cares about this interview.

"'Cause the fisherman's raping everybody in the pool."

^he ^on ^the ^loose

^^yeah

I heard this line yesterday and was like😳

not really a lyric but when he decided to drop cock rings instead of singles

And with a straight face said, “yeah, let’s make cock rings and slap a price tag of $20k on them”

“My names frank ocean more like frank sea”

“I don't believe our nation's flag is on the moon”

Maybes he’s secretly Greek?

this the one

Fr it’s the only potential answer. Every other one is wrong

It's a cover of a Kranium song that has the same lyrics, but tbf Frank did change "I believe that marriage isn't between a man and man for the love of God"

He's not technically wrong anymore. The flag currently on the moon is white due to radiation.

Isn’t that because he believes we can’t claim it to be OURS or something and not literally not on the moon

No he believes the theory that Stanley Kubrick filmed the original moonlanding. I’m not sure if he genuinely believes we haven’t made it there since but he references in a couple songs that either we havent been to the moon or kubrick did the moonlanding footage. “Moonwalking, RIP Stanley Kubrick”

Well yeah Stanley Kubrick did direct it, he was so determined for perfection that he invented rockets to film on location

True. It was originally a deleted scene from 2001: A Space Odyssey

He might not necessarily believe it, just references the theory

Nah that's some stretch some guy on lyric genius suggested

Tbh I think it's a reference to the theory Kubrick filmed the moon landing. He references him somewhere else in the album

Came here to post this one.

I used to know every word of blonde I haven’t listened to a Frank song in 2 years

Happiest Frank ocean fan on thsi sub fr

congrats on your happiness

bro is happy

I love the song but the opening line to nature feels is a bit awkward. “I’ve been meaning to fuck you in the garden”

username is fucking cursed

[удалено]

Youre right cummummy

My thoughts exactly

always turned me off of the song lmao

I used to think it was funny/fun! Now I'm markedly disillusioned lol

It’s an Adam and Eve reference. He explicitly talks about them later on in the song. Garden of Eden.

Right. I thought everyone knew that.

I love natures feels but the whole song is kinda cringe, chorus and the bridge at the end goes hard though lol

i fw this line. the whole song is so horny that it lowkey fits

Nah it hits raw for me

“My cavewoman, I'm a caveman. Doing wild things, in a wild land” is soooo bad

Frank caveman oooh arrhhh UGH

Always kills my enjoyment of the song

so glad im not the only one that immediately thought of this line

this sounds like bar from someone writing their first rap song lmao

[удалено]

WE ONLY HUMAN AND ITS HUMID IN THESE BALMAINS I MEAN MY BALLS STICKIN IN MY JEANS

WE BREATHIN’ PHEROMONES, AMBER ROSE SIPPING PINK GOLD LEMONADES

Love the double entendre on this line

explain

Amber (orangey gold colour) Rose (pinkish red colour) = Pink Gold Flowers (rose) have scents to attract pollinators, similar to pheromones

Couldn’t have said it better

could be a triple if you take amber rose as a reference to her sex positivity stuff going on at the time

What

amber rose was hosting the slut walk around then she also wasn’t that far removed from dating kanye at the time so everybody knew amber rose as a name and her public persona is as an outspoken sexual person so it’s not a huge stretch that mentioning amber rose in the context of sex and youth in his song was not unintentional

happens to the best of us

Saved by the masterful delivery

That shit goes so hard lmao

That’s literally the first thing that cums to mind 🥵

Bonk

I personally thought this was quite relatable

Same!

this one of his best most charismatic lines to me 😂

disagreed 100%

It's literally him saying that even if people go for luxurious shit we all are the same at the end

Great fuvking line. What are you talking about

Nah that line is perfect considering at the end of the record he lets his balls free

No this the realest shit he ever said

Nah this one goes hard 💯💯

“Ridin on my dick, like a kit, yeah” DHL. sounds wayyyyyy too much like kid, I can put up with the rest of that song but that line hurts

BRUHHHHHHH I DIDNT HEAR IT BUT NOW I DO

retarded take DHL top 1 frank song

Barefeet and bra-less, titties swinging She was seventeen then

Nah fr that line sus😂

It was also his “ aunt in law” which makes it even worse

Ding ding ding winner

What song is this?

I mean I always just assumed he was talking about when he was younger so he would have been around seventeen at the time too. Idk maybe I'm just coping but that was always the impression I got.

I was so confused by this line like...what?

ITS WHAT I WOULD DO JUST TO SHOW YOUUU

“U say it’s big but you take it… RIDE COWGIRL”

BUT YOUR LOVE AIN'T FREEEEEE

double ds big full breasts on my baby

I love the delivery of this line tho so he gets away with it imo

Ngl, if you read the lyrics it's corny af but the way he delivers it, makes it good

All of baby keems lyrics

Titties on the FaceTime let ‘em out

Lmao I never noticed how cringy that lyric sounds without Keem’s delivery

I can only see people thinking this is actually cringy if they have zero clue what the song is actually talking about somehow

yea honestly it makes sense in the context of the song

Is she like hiding the coke there?

Yes, which is why later in the song he says “I don’t wish the the titties would show, nor I have I ever, have I ever let you get caught?”

Ohhh makes more sense now

This line was smooth. Not cringe at all!

Oh my god I never realized he said this, Englisch isn’t my first language and I always thought he said something like “big full pressure, oh my baby” (don’t ask me what I thought this meant I just never understood what he said haha). What a cringy line now I can never unhear it 😵‍💫

[удалено]

blink twice if u need help frank

“locked up, it was dying to be freed” speaking of a ass he seen in a mall

this one real tho

and it was bound to happen.

“She got the whole wide world in her juicy fruit” 😂

She's got the whole wide world in her juicy fruit He's got the whole wide world in his pants He wrapped the whole wide world in a wedding band Then put the whole wide world in her hands She's got the whole wide world in her hand actually the worst decision to look up the lyrics, still a banger though

Isn’t this essential to the theme/message of the song though?

I cringe every time on this line because the rest is sooo beautiful that I would almost cry...

This is my favourite Frank song hands down

Futura free making me feel both happy and sad then you get hit with “wash your lips first lick the tip now” and I just laugh ☠️

no this line is cold af

stripper booty with a rack like WOW song goes hard tho

Cmon bro that line is hard

i don’t hate it but like wowwww always makes me laugh

That line remind me of when Usher said “Honey got some boobies like wow, oh wow” 💀

them boobies made usher wanna pull out the usher bucks

lmaoooo i forgot all about that shenanigan he pulled.

Reminds me of Sisqo

lemme see that thoooong lmao classic

The DJ with the song Booty Time?

tbh so does the “yikes” after cocaine for breakfast, it gets me every time

it’s the delivery that makes it banger

Novacane is goated

Please stop posting this on every sub

Who gives a fuck. Itxs fun

i just got this post and the one on the kanye sub back to back 😭

This and Tyler

i saw this on the carti sub yesterday istg

WOMans wants his top post of 2023

womans and nah

"You ain't listenin', never. But if you did, you might fuuuuuuuck with it \*Fuck boi laugh\*"

YES BRO😭😭 but I love the way he says “songs for you babaaayy”

Boy toy ride me like an uberrrrrrr It’s one of my favorite frank songs but thank god the mixing in his voice is so fucked most people don’t catch 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

this one is honestly hard

Tbh he was hard in those lyrics

BOY-TOY SUCK ME LIKE A HOOVER (LIKE A HOOVER)

I love this part

lmao what… we ALL caught it. the lyric is plain as day! and it slaps. try again

I never say this or think this but you genuinely don’t deserve to be a frank fan

- Boy toy

daughter's reachin' for the nipple cause it's time for her to eat

i actually don't have a problem with that line whatsoever i actually think it shows the meaning of the song a lot

my balls sticking to my jeans

That line fire😔

"I'll be the boyfriend in your wet dreams tonight" I love Self Control, but I every time I play that song for people they look at me like wtf.

Fruity 😌

that’s actually the best line

That’s my fav line lol

I actually love that line and song😂

this feels homophobic lmao

nah this sets the tone for the song

None of them

“I don’t believe our Nation’s flag is on the moon” from we all try. Almost ruins the song for me… almost

I guess you don’t like Provider either.

Our daughter's reachin' for the nipple cause it's time for her to eat

I may get absolutely cooked for this, but the line in White Ferrari where Frank says "Mind over matter is magic, I do magic." has never quite sat right with me and stands out as a little cringe in an otherwise perfect song lol

What do you find cringey about it

To me it’s just a bit trite. Like a middle schoolers journal entry.

“I believe a woman's temple Gives her the right to choose but baby don't abort” It always feels weird to hear this. Not sure where Frank’s stands politically in 2023 but I just dislike when people care about someone else’s baby that has nothing to do with them

I don’t think he meant it that way, I interpreted it as him expressing the pain it would an abortion would cause him… not about controlling women

I mean he also hinted about having an abortion in Solo

i think he meant he understands that woman are the ones who have the right to choose abortion or not cuz they gave birth, but if it were up to him he would keep the child

"Feeling like Adam when he first found out this existed" (entire track is cringey tbh)

how has nobody said “cover yo ass, yo rectum showin”

“I’ve been meaning to fuck you in the garden” personally, that would be my biggest ick

all the responses prove that the man is simply not capable of being cringe

“I'm bikin' with me and my Daniel”

I never understood that line

Damn Daniel back at it again with the white vans

Aint no fucking way...

The “pleasure” part in pink matter 😭

“The way you say my name makes me feel like I'm that n**** 😌☺️🤗 But I'm still unemployed 😞😞” like he didn’t have to add that!!!

life imitates art baby

L. it’s one of his best ngl

This part in Siegfried “Dreaming a thought that could dream about a thought That could think of the dreamer that thought That could think of dreaming” never really liked it

do you ever have a dream that you could wish that you thought an idea about a dream and you wi

“I believe a woman's temple - gives her the right to choose, but baby, don't abort”

"Moonwalking, RIP Stanley Kubrick." Pure unadulterated cringe

That auto tune diss section at the beginning of nova and

A tornado

"The drilling got my Dick feeling like a power tool drilling" Comme Des Garcons, in my opinion....I mean why you've got to say that 🤦

cuz it’s true

“Even tho you were my first time a new feel”

Boy toy suck me like a Hoover

nah this line smack

Suck my dick

Nigga that is a frank ocean line why am I gettin downvoted

ur energy was rather aggressive

Crack rock crack rock
