Ritard is short for ritardando. It means slow down playing at this point. The “You” above it is probably just coincidental lyrics

"Ritardando" sounds like you're being insensitive and a little racist.

It also, you know, sounds like "retard"

It literally is the word "retard" in Italian.

"die" is probably from a german song. It's the article for female nouns (or plurals). Couldn't guess the song though based on those three notes.

pp (very soft) is likely a reference to how the performer has trouble keeping his incredibly small penis erect. This can be common in any part of a song; it mostly depends on how much of a loser the performer is.

the performer sees "pp" in the paper and impulsively puts their pants down

based on those three notes.

We don't even know what those three notes are. Is it a treble clef? Bass clef? Tenor clef‽

True and I obviously have no idea what I'm doing. But I'm sure it doesn't matter because I don't know anything about music, don't have absolute pitch and just pressed e f f on an online midi keyboard 🤣
