"Squidward Nose" is a song by American rapper and singer Cupcakke. It was independently released on January 11, 2019. The song refers to the character Squidward Tentacles from the Nickelodeon TV series SpongeBob SquarePants.[1][2][3][4][5]

In the song, Cupcakke laments her sexual partner, saying, "His dick smaller than my toes / I'd rather ride Squidward nose."[4] The song received attention through TikTok for its raunchy lyrics.

Background[edit]

The song was originally planned to be called "Pinocchio Nose" but the singer changed the character to Squidward when she realized that the Pinocchio character is a child.[6][2]

Music video[edit]

A music video was released on February 21, 2019, and features comedian John Early. The music video features Cupcakke as a siren and Early as a diver. Squidward also appears at the end, where Cupcakke ends up riding his nose as stated in the lyrics.

Reception[edit]

MTV News posted a somewhat nonplussed response to the video, calling it "equal parts SpongeBob SquarePants and sex". The singer is "immediately over the top from the opening moments... her half-laugh/half-smile expression lets you know that you're in for a wild ride." In closing, they say, "With this kind of work ethic and commitment to risque subject matters, there's literally no telling what the rapper could be planning next."[7]
