Confused about West's music, McCarthy explains that the non-existent "Butterscotch Man" is her favorite song from the rapper off his "third or 15th album."

"Butterscotch man / tater tot yam / put it in my ham / butterscotch man," the Ghostbusters star hilariously raps to Bayer who attempts to follow along.

Before West takes the SNL stage for the seventh time, his new album recently renamed T.L.O.P., is expected to drop on Thursday.

McCarthy will be hosting Saturday Night Live for the fourth time Feb. 13 at 11:30/10:30c on NBC.
