Annotationen

Die AllMusic-Rezensipn von Stewart Mason bemerkt, wie diese Single die drei im Jahr 1974 dominanten britischen Stile hybridisiert: «The song sounds like some kind of deadpan cross between the Rolling Stones in their post-Exile on Main St. junkie swagger on the one hand and the crisp art rock cool of Roxy Music and the glam extravagance of David Bowie on the other»

Lyrics

I was justified when I was five Raisin' Cain, I spit in your eye Times are changin' now the poor get fat But the fever's gonna catch you when the bitch gets back, oh, oh, oh Eat meat on Friday, that's all right Even like steak on a Saturday night I can bitch the best at your social do's I get high in the evening sniffing pots of glue, oh, oh, oh I'm a bitch, I'm a bitch oh, the bitch is back Stone cold sober as a matter of fact I can bitch, I can bitch 'cause I'm better than you It's the way that I move, the things that I do oh I entertain by picking brains Sell my soul, by dropping names I don't like those! My God, what's that! Oh, it's full of nasty habits when the bitch gets back. I'm a bitch, I'm a bitch oh, the bitch is back Stone cold sober as a matter of fact I can bitch, I can bitch 'cause I'm better than you It's the way that I move, the things that I do oh I'm a bitch, I'm a bitch oh, the bitch is back Stone cold sober as a matter of fact I can bitch, I can bitch 'cause I'm better than you It's the way that I move, the things that I do oh Bitch, bitch, the bitch is back Bitch, bitch, the bitch is back Bitch, bitch, the bitch is back Bitch, bitch, the bitch is back Bitch, bitch, the bitch is back Bitch, bitch, the bitch is back Bitch, bitch, the bitch is back Bitch, bitch, the bitch is back
