Bif Naked Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Often heard but never seen and dated mostly dicks
Angry white females a term you should save for your mothers
I'd be sleeping the whole tour if I had my druthers
I don't party I ain't down with bull shit anymore
To many times I came to with the devil at my door
That great word alternative applied inn 1989
Now it's a cop out catch fraise that covers us like grime
Sometimes makes s fell happy and sometimes makes us glum
The only thing I have to say and you may think its bent
But it's all just about emotions up for entertainment
In Bif Naked's song "Metal Queen," she addresses the stereotype of angry white females in the music industry. She states that she's never been the typical metal queen or punker chick and that while she's often heard, she is rarely seen. She mentions that she's dated mostly dicks, which could be an indication of her past relationships and struggles with men. She scoffs at the notion of being labeled as an "angry white female" and suggests that the term should be saved for your mothers.
Despite the glamorous and exciting lifestyle associated with being a musician, Bif Naked acknowledges that it's not all it's cracked up to be. She says she's not down with the bullsh*t and that she would rather be sleeping the whole tour if she had the choice. She's been burned by the lifestyle before and has found herself waking up with the devil at her door too many times.
The singer also brings up the idea that music is subjective and that it can be whatever it becomes. She acknowledges that sometimes music can make us feel happy or sad, but ultimately, for her, it's all about emotions being up for entertainment. The song appears to be a self-reflection on Bif Naked's own experiences as a musician and her vision for what the music industry should be.
