As your punishment, you're gonna sit in your room and you cannot come out until you name five B songs. No! Mom, no please, I'm sorry. You left me no choice but to take away your Vaseline. Mom, what am I gonna use to moisturize my ashy knees? With your saliva. Mom, no please, I'm sorry. All that and you still taking me to a restaurant? No, even better. We're gonna go to Chilis and get a triple dipper, but except your mozzarella sticks are gonna be cold with no cheese pull. Wait, wait, wait. Um, excuse me, where are you going? I'm going to the fridge to get some water. Nope, you'll be having Hawaiian punch with no ice. Listen to DDG on full volume now. Ground beef, sweet potato, and cottage cheese. Now. Middle seat on an airplane. Now. Carrot cake covered in fondant. Now. Oh, you getting smart with me? Whatever. 50 Pop-Tarts with no water. Now. I can't even look at you right now. I'm gonna have to take you to a hotel. Cool, so I can get away from y'all. Y'all irritating. It's called five nights at Gabriels. No! Do you want to test me? Okay. I don't care. The one with the chemicals. Wait, wait, wait. Oh, that's how you want to speak to me? Honey, bring out the MacBook Air. We're gonna go in indeed.

Hold lot of money, remix. Mom, no!
