In which Lily Allen tells us all about her baggy pussy.
So, the need-to-know stuff:
1. It’s Lily Allen’s first new song since 2009.
2. It’s essentially Lily Allen vs Robin Thicke (and Miley Cyrus). The balloons above are a pop (hoo! Related pun!) at Robin Thicke and his big dick.
3. It’s a (piss-taking) homage of Three 6 Mafia’s It’s Hard Out Here for a Pimp (an Oscar winning song, don’t you know?). But Lily’s (auto-tuned) beef is that it’s ‘hard out here for a BITCH’.
4. It’s like the musical version of a Sinead O’Connor open letter.
5. Which is kind of what Lorde’s done with her song Royals, but about materialism rather than sexism.
6. It makes the John Lewis Christmas ad look LAME.
7. It’s all WELL ironic, cos even though she’s dissin’ twerkin’ and suggestive posin’, SHE DOES ALL THESE THINGS IN THE VIDEO! WE KNOW, RIGHT?
Hard Out Here is from Lily’s new album Allen, out in 2014.
Hard Out Here by Lily Allen lyrics
[Verse 1]
I suppose I should tell you what this bitch is thinkin’
You’ll find me in the studio, and not in the kitchen
I won’t be braggin’ ’bout my cars, or talkin’ ’bout my chains
Don’t need to shake my ass for you ‘cuz I got a brain
If I told you ’bout my sex life, you’d call me a slut
When boys be talkin’ ’bout their bitches no one’s making a fuss
There’s a glass ceiling to break, uh huh there’s money to make
And now it’s time to speed it up ‘cuz I can’t move at this pace[Chorus]
Sometimes it’s hard to find the words to say
I’ll go ahead and say them anyway
Forget your balls and grow a pair of tits
It’s hard, it’s hard, it’s hard out here for a bitch
It’s hard (for a bitch, for a bitch)
For a bitch, it’s hard
It’s hard out here for a bitch[Verse 2]
You’re not a size 6, and you’re not good looking
Well you better be rich, or be real good at cooking
You should probably lose some weight, ‘cuz we can’t see your bones
You should probably fix your face, or you’ll end up on your own
Don’t you want to have somebody who objectifies you?
Have you thought about your butt, who’s gonna tear it in two?
We’ve never had it so good, uh huh we’re out of the woods
And if you can’t detect the sarcasm you’re misunderstood[Chorus]
A bitch, a bitch, bitch bitch bitch bitch
[Bridge]
Inequality promises that its here to stay
Alway trust the injustice ‘cuz it’s not going away[Chorus]
