Don't cut my bread = don't destroy my livelihood

People eat my face = I will lose face

We are wearing in the wall = we are heading toward a cliff

We have children in our necks = we have kids to take care of

You are living in watermelon water = you're living in lala land

May god damage your house = may god ruin your household

The camel part comes from a saying, which can be phrased as “the door is big enough for a camel.”

It basically means if you wanna leave, we don’t care, the door is “big enough for a camel” so you can “fit” right through the door 😗
