The Bitch Came Back
Theory of a Deadman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner
But the bitch came back she couldn't stay away
Don't you know the bitch came back

I like her so much better when she's down on her knees
'Cause when she's in my face that's when I'm starting to see
That all my friends are laughing thinking that we be wrong
Well she's so fucking stupid that she's singing along

The trouble with girls is they're all the same
Forget the diamonds and pearls they just want a ring
Before you know it you're like a dog on a leash
Well you can try and change the world but you won't change me

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner
But the bitch came back she couldn't stay away
Don't you know the bitch came back

There she goes again just always breaking my balls
No matter what I do somehow it's always my fault
She says I must be cheating 'cause I turned off my phone
But that's the only frickin' way she'll leave me alone

The trouble with girls is it's never enough
They love to complain and they never shut up
They like to tell you the way it oughta be
Go on and tell the world but just don't tell me

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner
But the bitch came back she couldn't stay away
Don't you know the bitch came back

It ain't a joke when I say I wanna throw you out
(I really mean it, I really mean it)
Look who's laughing now

The bitch came, the bitch came back
The bitch came, the bitch came back
The bitch came, the bitch came back
She just couldn't stay away

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner
But the bitch came back she won't stay the fuck away

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner
The bitch came back she couldn't stay away
Don't you know the bitch came back

The bitch came back the very next day
Oh the bitch came back thought she was a goner




But the bitch came back she couldn't stay away
Don't you know the bitch came back

Overall Meaning

Theory of a Deadman's "Bitch Came Back" is a song about a dysfunctional relationship that just won't seem to end. The lyrics depict the singer's frustration with a woman who keeps coming back to him even though they have a toxic relationship. The song opens with the refrain "the bitch came back the very next day," which repeats throughout the track, emphasizing the woman's persistence. The chorus also reflects the dynamics of the relationship, as it implies that the woman is both wanted and unwanted at the same time. The verse then describes the woman as annoying and stupid, highlighting the singer's mixed feelings about their shared history. Despite his irritation, however, he seems to enjoy having power over her, especially when she's "down on her knees."


The second verse continues the contrast between the woman's presence and absence, as the singer complains about her constant nagging while also admitting that he doesn't want her to leave him completely. He even suggests that he might be cheating on her just to get some breathing space. The chorus repeats, underscoring the irrationality and co-dependence of the relationship. The bridge is a violent outburst against the woman, as the singer declares that he really wants to "throw her out" and finally end the cycle of pain and pleasure. But in the end, the woman still comes back, as the final chorus repeats and fades out, suggesting that the singer might never be free of her.


Overall, "Bitch Came Back" is a catchy and humorous song that deals with a serious and often relatable subject matter: the difficulty of ending a toxic relationship. The lyrics are blunt and provocative, but they also reveal a sense of vulnerability and self-awareness on the part of the singer. The music, with its heavy guitar riffs, driving beat, and anthemic chorus, matches the intensity and emotional confusion of the lyrics, making the song a perfect representation of Theory of a Deadman's style.
