1
[Intro]
2
Yeah
3
I say bitch bad, woman good, lady better
4
Hey, hey, hey, hey
5
[Verse 1]
6
Now imagine there's a shawty, maybe five maybe four
7
Ridin' 'round with his mama listening to the radio
8
And a song comes on and a not far off from being born
9
Doesn't know the difference between right and wrong
10
Now I ain't trying to make it too complex
11
But let's just say shawty has an undeveloped context
12
About the perception of women these days
13
His mama sings along and this what she says
14
"Niggas I'm a bad bitch, and I'm bad bitch
15
far above average"
16
And maybe other rhyming words like cabbage and savage
17
And baby carriage and other things that match it
18
Couple of things that are happenin' here
19
First he's relatin' the word "bitch" with his mama, comma
20
And because she's relatin' to herself, his most important source of help, And mental health, he may skew respect for dishonor
21
[Hook]
22
Bitch bad, woman good
23
Lady better, they misunderstood
24
(I'm killin' these bitches)
25
Uh, tell "˜em
26
Bitch bad, woman good
27
Lady better, they misunderstood
28
They misunderstood
29
(I'm killin' these bitches)
30
[Verse 2]
31
Yeah, now imagine a group of little girls nine through twelve
32
On the internet watchin' videos listenin' to songs by themselves
33
It doesn't really matter if they have parental clearance
34
They understand the internet better than their parents
35
Now being the internet, the content's probably uncensored
36
They're young, so they're malleable and probably un-mentored
37
A complicated combination, maybe with no relevance
38
Until that intelligence meets their favorite singer's preference
39
"Bad bitches, bad bitches, bad bitches
40
That's all I want and all I like in life is bad bitches, bad bitches"
41
Now let's say that they less concerned with him
42
And more with the video girl acquiescin' to his whims
43
Ah, the plot thickens
44
High heels, long hair, fat booty, slim
45
Reality check, I'm not trippin'
46
They don't see a paid actress, just what makes a bad bitch
47
[Hook]
48
[Verse 3]
49
Disclaimer: This rhymer, Lupe's not usin' bitch as a lesson
50
But as a psychological weapon
51
To set in your mind and really mess with your conceptions
52
Discretions, reflections, it's clever misdirection
53
Cause, while I was rappin' they was growin' up fast
54
Nobody stepped in to ever slow "˜em up, gasp
55
Sure enough, in this little world
56
The little boy meets one of those little girls
57
And he thinks she a bad bitch and she thinks she a bad bitch
58
He thinks disrespectfully, she thinks of that sexually
59
She got the wrong idea, he don't wanna fuck her
60
He thinks she's bad at being a bitch like his mother
61
Momma never dress like that, come out the house, hot mess like that
62
Ass, titties, dress like that
63
All out to impress like that
64
Just like that, you see the fruit of the confusion
65
He caught in a reality, she caught in an illusion
66
Bad mean good to her, she really nice and smart
67
But bad mean bad to him, bitch don't play your part
68
But bitch still bad to her if you say it the wrong way
69
But she think she a bitch, what a double entendre
70
[Hook]
71
[Outro]
72
Bitch bad, woman good
73
Lady better, they misunderstood
74
You're misunderstood
75
Bitch bad, woman good
76
Lady better, greatest motherhood
77
(I'm killin' these bitches)
