"Ice Cream" (not to be confused with the supposed "Salvatore" demo of the same name) is an unreleased song by Lana Del Rey, recorded in 2010 or 2011 and produced by Stevie Aiello[S 1] and The Kickdrums.[1] The song is not registered to any known music publishing service.
Background[]
While the song had long been speculated to exist, its title was officially confirmed by an insider on December 21, 2023. The full lyrics were shared by insiders on April 1, 2024, accompanied by a one-second looped snippet. On July 4, a second snippet leaked, shortly followed by the song leaking in full.
In a YouTube comment, The Kickdrums revealed that the song could be considered an outtake of Born to Die and was scrapped for being "more pop" and after being shown the video for "Video Games", the song was reworked into "Ridin".[1][2]

Lyrics[]
I wanna be the object of your affection
Gimme all your time, touch, money and attention
Pick me up after school, you can be my baby
Maybe we could go somewhere, get a little crazy
He's rich and I'm wishing, um, he could be my mister yum
Delicious to the maximum, chew him up like bubble gum
I'm his pretty party favor, he says I'm his favorite flavor
French vanilla ice cream
Making you scream (Ah, ah)
French vanilla ice cream
Making you scream (Ah, ah)
I scream, you scream, yes
I scream, you scream, yes
You say that I'm flawless, true perfection
So give me all your drugs, props, money, and connections
Pick me up after school, actin' kinda shady
You the coolest kid in town, I'm your little lady
He's sick and I'm kissin' him, magical musician, hum
Drivin' at the cinema, lovin' him and lickin' him
He's my lovely life saver, doesn't mind my bad behavior
French vanilla ice cream
Making you scream (Ah, ah)
French vanilla ice cream
Making you scream (Ah, ah)
I scream, you scream, yes
I scream, you scream, yes
I scream, you scream, yes
I scream, you scream, yes
My baby the best-best, slipping off my party dress (Ooh)
Sending dirty text-text, yo, he never lets me rest (Ooh)
He likes to take me downtown, Cipriani in the bay (Ooh)
And it makes me, makes me hot
Makes me say yes!
(Ice cream, ice cream, ice cream)
(Ice cream, ice cream, ice cream)
French vanilla ice cream
Making you scream (Ah, ah)
French vanilla ice cream
Making you scream (Ah, ah)
I scream, you scream, yes
I scream, you scream, yes
I scream, you scream, yes
I scream, you scream, yes
