i relate to this song deeply (i’m 17😭)

Dear Porcupines Drown me in my daily cup of tea Tell the porcupines to quit stabbing me They make me fall, but I will stand Cause all of them are jerks with their cups in their hands Now they want a whisper, a whisper from me 'Cause all of them have watched me on their big screen TVs But what about little ol', little ol' me? The one who got bullied because of her teeth I hope you all are watching my middle finger rise To the bullies in the school yard I know I'm on your mind Now you say love me, but what about before? When I was just that silly little girl next door, oh oh oh, ohhhhh Ladies, oh, ladies, why are you so mad? Is it 'cause I'm classy and you're a trash bag? Your teasing and laughing resonates through my heart And now you're calling me cause you want a fresh start Now look at you boys, you can't believe your eyes You told me I was ugly and I took you by surprise You should have been nicer 'cause look where I'm at While you copy Mac Miller wearing snap back hats I hope you all are watching my middle finger rise To the bullies in the school yard I know I'm on your mind Now you say love me, but what about before? When I was just that silly little girl next door, oh oh oh, ohhh Why must you be so mean, talking trash about me? All I wanted was a friend to laugh and cry and spend all of eternity Or even just a week I hope you all are watching my middle finger rise To the bullies in the school yard I know I'm on your mind Now you say love me, but what about before? When I was just that silly little girl next door, ohh

Guys Mel has song this on stage many times

This song is so slept on

2:17 hits different

Most players instead of Indian team concentrate for IPL for money

This song is so underrated for a unreleased song, most Melanie fans don’t know about this song sadly

I wish this song was on spotify I love this song

people saying this unreleased dont listen to it LIKE GUYS. as much as i agree with not listening to leaked songs THIS ISN'T LEAKED. SHE PREFORMED IT PUBLICLY.

YES MELANIE❤️❤️❤️❤️

I’ll never tire of listening to this song, it’s so touching

6 years after post, I’m subscriber 118

Is it just me, or this song used to be called "Mr. Porcupine" ?

Fetus version of Battle of the Larynx

Man I used to listen to this in like, 5th grade or smthn? And now I’m graduating next year 😭

I never heard of this song before. It’s my first time listening to it but she’s soooo relatable

Why doesn't she have this song on her channel is what I'm wondering is she self conscious about it? Because she definitely should not be!

wow, as someone who knew her personally when she lived in baldwin, long island i cant help but laugh. she was the biggest bully literally ever. she called most of my friends "basic" all because they decided to wear matching juicy sweatsuits and they were so embarrassed because they were not the type of girls to stand up for themselves. people definitely made fun of her teeth and called her ugly and people definitely talked trash about her but thats because she was so nasty to everyone she would call everyone trash, sl-ts, wh-res, it was like she had this incredible rage inside her or something. but she had no friends because she was mean. no one wants to be friends with someone so mean.

My fucking adolescence <3

Sums me up

This will forever be one of my favorites 💕

Man, I miss the 2010s badly

everyonce in a blue moon this song is reminded in my head

I can relate to Melanie on the "being bullied by her teeth." I have a gap myself, which not so many ppl around me have. I haven't been teased about my gap but I have been teased about my teeth. Ppl would constantly say my teeth were big. and I knee that wasn't true. but because mel decided to keep her perfect imperfection (her gap) I'm going to keep mine too. Idc if ppl say my teeth are big. Atleast when I open my mouth to smile you smile back. Ha. My mom always tells me my smile always does that. and it's true. even when they fake a smile or smile cuz their laughing at my teeth, they're smiling regardless.

❤️

my fav unrealised song n i will gatekeep this song till the end bro idc

Hits different after receiving death threats from high-school bullies. ❤️‍🩹

I really want to sing this infront of my teachers for calling me childish and treating me so badly like I wasnt good enough

i've been listening to this song since the sixth grade and i'm a college freshman now. how is there still not a studio version of this?

Ah, memories <3

at 2:11 I genuinely felt that quote on a personal level-

Fave unreleased Melanie song 100%

Those dislikes are from the people who bullied her lol

1:40 Rest in peace. ❤️❤️

For some reason i can relate to every word in this song

Spotify is so incomplete without this song

i rlly miss my Melanie martinez phase

I used to really resonate with this song. I really wanted to sing it to everyone who bullied me back in 2016 but then I realized, oh wait I can't sing and I have extreme anxiety, oh well.

I see muself singing this at my 10 year high school reunion! 😅

Such an old song but it's not even cringey and we can all enjoy it even now 💗

The one who got bullied because of her teeth 😯😯😯

I have a tooth gap and was bullied for it my whole life and this song makes me feel powerful. ❤️
