Bitch
Clawfinger Lyrics

What the hell is wrong with you have you lost your mind
Addressing someone and questioning their actions, as they seem irrational and out of character.

You know we never go out this late
Stating a fact that someone should be aware of, as it goes against the usual routine.

You're making me look stupid and now I'm feeling mad
Acknowledging someone's actions and the consequences that arise from them, expressing frustration and anger.

It must have been something you ate
Making an assumption as to why someone is behaving in a certain way, assigning blame to a hypothetical cause.

I used to love you but now I'm not so sure
Admitting a change in feelings towards someone, suggesting that they no longer feel the same way they once did.

There's something about your whole attitude
Identifying a specific issue with someone's behaviour, acknowledging it as a problem that requires attention.

I've got this feeling eatin' straight through my brain
Describing a feeling of intense frustration or irritation, as if it is physically affecting the singer's mind.

All you ever think about is food
Making an observation about someone's preoccupation with a particular subject, suggesting that they are overly fixated on it.

But you're still my bitch
An ironic acknowledgement of someone's negative traits, still asserting control over them despite disliking their behaviour.

Everytime we go out for a walk in the park

You're always barking up the wrong tree

Now you just want attention from the opposite sex

I know that you're just using me
Acknowledging that someone is manipulating the singer, using them in a way that benefits the other party.

Sometimes when you get angry you show me your teeth
Describing a specific physical response to a particular emotion, suggesting that it is an inappropriate or aggressive reaction.

But I know your bark is worse than your bite
Asserting that someone's behaviour is not as threatening as it may seem, as they lack the actual power to cause harm.

And then when you get hungry it's a whole different deal
Describing a change in behaviour based on a physical need, similar to the change in behaviour when someone is drunk or otherwise impaired.

You act like everything is alright
Faking a sense of normalcy or calm when there is clearly tension or conflict present.

You always try to play those tricks with my mind

But bitch I know a trick or two

For everytime you try to make me loosen your leash

You know I'll have to punish you

You look at me and throw yourself at me feet

Hoping I might pat you on the back

But I'm not gonna go there, I won't fall for that

Not until you cut me some slack
Asserting that the singer is looking for some space or room for manoeuvre, requiring some breathing room in the relationship.
