I'm Just Your Problem

"I'm Just Your Problem" is a song featured in the episode "What Was Missing." The song is written by Rebecca Sugar and sung by Olivia Olson (Marceline's voice actress), backed up by Finn (beatboxing), Princess Bubblegum (synthesizers), and Jake (viola). The song seems to be about Marceline's anger with Princess Bubblegum; the final few lines raise questions of her true feelings, implying that, while her frustrations are genuine, so is her desire to reconcile.

Lyrics


Marceline: La da da da da,

I'm gonna bury you in the ground,

La da da da da,

I'm gonna bury you with my sound,

I'm gonna drink the red from your pretty pink face,

I'm gonna…


 * Princess Bubblegum: Marceline, that's too distasteful!


 * Marceline: Oh, you don't like that? Or do you just not like me?!



Sorry I don’t treat you like a goddess,

Is that what you want me to do?

Sorry I don’t treat you like you’re perfect,

Like all your little loyal subjects do,

Sorry I’m not made of sugar,

Am I not sweet enough for you?

Is that why you always avoid me?

That must be such an inconvenience to you, well

I’m just your problem,

I’m just your problem,

It's like I'm not, even a person, am I?

I’m just your problem



Well, I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I shouldn’t have to justify what I do

I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I shouldn’t have to prove anything to you

I’m sorry that I exist


 * Finn: It's working! Look at the door!

I play that enemy on your blacklist,

But I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I shouldn’t have to be the one that makes up with you, so

''Why do I want to? Why do I want to…''

To… bury you in the ground and drink the blood from your… Ugh

STOP STARING AT ME!
