Bad Bitch
Bebe Rexha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're sayin' that your tired of all your empty habits
You want something that's deeper 'cause you're over the generics
You're fuckin' with them basics when you really want the baddest
So come on, baby, get it, 'cause to miss it, it would be tragic

You say you want a bad bitch, baby, now you have it
Now you got a bad bitch, show me you can handle this
Say you want a bad bitch, baby, now you have it
Now you got the baddest, show me you can handle this

Bad bitch, bad bitch
Bad bitch, bad bitch
Show me you can handle this
Bad bitch, bad bitch
Bad bitch, bad bitch
Show me you can handle this
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh (Dolla)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Dolla $ign, Dolla)

You know I can handle it (yeah), you know I can handle it (yeah)
When you throw that thing back at me like a lateral
You be goin' all night when you on that Adderall (ooh, yeah)
We be goin' all night when you on that Adderall (ooh, yeah)
Bad bitch, bad bitch, you ain't never average
Get some double C's on your bag with the brass
Bad bitch, bad bitch, you ain't never average
Saint Laurent jeans with the Saint Laurent bag too (Dolla $ign)

You say you want a bad bitch, baby, now you have it
Now you got a bad bitch, show me you can handle this
Say you want a bad bitch, baby, now you have it
Now you got the baddest, show me you can handle this

Bad bitch, bad bitch

I pay my own bills and I pay my own rent
'Cause I'm indepen-independent
I buy my own rings and I do my own things
'Cause I'm indepen-independent
I know it really hurts, I know it ain't fair
You're not allowed to touch, but you can stare
Know it really hurts, know it ain't fair
So keep sayin' your prayers

You want a bad bitch, baby, now you have it
Now you got a bad bitch, show me you can handle this
Say you want a bad bitch, baby, now you have it
Now you got the baddest, show me you can handle this

Bad bitch, bad bitch
Bad bitch, bad bitch
Bad bitch, bad bitch




Bad bitch, bad bitch
Show me you can handle this
