Allie X wrote “Bitch” in one day, following her move to Los Angeles from her native Canada. She had no plans to properly release it, but later posted it on Soundcloud in April 2014.
Allie explained its contents in full detail with Interview Magazine:
I just built it up. I did the beat first. These...
[Verse 1]
Gonna bake and make your dinner (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
I'll be your cook (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
You can bring me home the bacon (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
And chop the wood (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
Steal my blood and steal my heart, whatever it takes to get you off
I'm your bitch, you're my bitch (Boom, boom)
In my bones and in my soul, always be in your control
I'm your bitch, you're my bitch (Boom, boom)
[Chorus]
Give me that stuff that feels so pure, stamp me with your signature (Hey, hey)
I'm your bitch (Hey bitch), you're my bitch (Boom, boom)
We do things a different way, it's up to you and it's up to me
I'm your bitch (Hey, hey bitch), you're my bitch (Boom, boom)
[Verse 2]
Make the bed and do your laundry
Tuck the corners in (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Read the news, the business section
Tell me how it's been (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
Steal my blood and steal my heart, whatever it takes to get you off
I'm your bitch, you're my bitch (Boom, boom)
In my bones and in my soul, always be in your control
I'm your bitch, you're my bitch (Boom, boom)
[Chorus]
Give me that stuff that feels so pure, stamp me with your signature
I'm your bitch (Hey, hey bitch), you're my bitch (Boom, boom)
We do things a different way, it's up to you and it's up to me (Hey, hey)
I'm your bitch (Bitch), you're my bitch (Boom, boom)
[Bridge]
It only goes into a vein (Hey, hey) goes in every nerve
Tell me to go (Hey, hey), we'll keep on moving through the crowd
(Hey, hey, so) Only for- (Hey, hey, so)
(Hey, hey, so, so bitch, bitch)
[Outro]
I was pretending not to cry
Now I was in love, you were mine
I was pretending not to cry, at night
Nobody's sat at me and stared (?)
Oh well, oh well
