Lyrics:
“She's really talented, but she comes on too strong and should be less abrasive.”
“C'mon sweetheart, but a smile on that face!”
“People find your tone a little off-putting, you should try to be warmer and more nurturing.”
“Man, the way she wouldn't budge on that part of the contract, she was being a real…”
“BITCH”
Because c'mon
You know that I'm a bitch
I'm a bitch, in business
You know that I'm a bitch
I'm a bitch, in business
You know that I'm a bitch
I'm a bitch, in business
You know that I'm a bitch
Bitch in Charge
Yeah, it's pretty clear, that I'm not a dude
And I'm told acting like one
Isn't what ladies do
But I'm tough as nails and I'll fight for my side
Gettin’ called bitch means I'm doing something right
I'm getting those returns, and making fat stacks
Making these suits look good
While I close the wage gap
But here is some fair warning, you should know that
I'm a viper in the boardroom
And a tiger in the sack
Yeah, my mama, she told me, that boys prefer girls who smile
Don't worry about brains, just twerk those feminine wiles
You know I won't be no soft-spoken timid doormat cliché
Because the harder I work, then the harder I get to play
Because c'mon
You know that I'm a bitch
I'm a bitch bottle poppin
You know that I'm a bitch
I'm a bitch, briefs droppin
You know that I'm a bitch
I'm a bitch, in business
You know that I'm a bitch
Bitch In Charge
*slaps an ass*
Glass ceiling's gonna fall
Because I'm a goddamn human wrecking ball
Don't make me mute you on this conference call
My time is money and
Bitch I won't be resting until my name is on the wall
Yeah I don't have a dick but that doesn't make me a fool
See girls acing their classes at med law and b-schools
But you old boys who are worried women might challenge your throne
You should know you are making your chromosome look small on'yur own
BOASTFUL RAP:
Let me take a moment to clarify what I'm sayin'
I'm a dope ass bitch and in business I'm stayin'
Well qualified but I don't get respected
Maybe they're just jealous cuz my nuts are well protected
You say "Babies are for girls! Business is for boys!"
Try telling THAT to my stay-at-home fuck toy
No time to worry about having it all, cuz
I'm a bitch in business just swingin’ my balls
Made of sugar and spice and everything nice
And gun powder and cubans, and burbon no ice
When we pitch a business get a fraction of the cash
But I'll launch half the startups and kick all the ass
To those who fear a female with authority
Guess I don't need a hand-mirror to look at a pussy
All hail the queen and keep your hands off of my crown
Cuz a piss is the only thing that I'll take sitting down
Because c'mon
You know that I'm a bitch
I'm a bitch, deal slingin’
You know that I'm a bitch
I'm a bitch, eggs freezin’
You know that I'm a bitch
I'm a bitch in business.
You know that I'm a bitch
Bitch in charge
Bad bitch in charge
Hey, hey, ooh
You know you love this bitch.
Feminist 'All About That Bass' Parody
"Bitch In Business"
Might Be Better Than The Original
By Alanna Vagianos
By Alanna Vagianos
While Meghan Trainor's hit "All About That Bass" celebrates body
confidence, a new feminist parody takes more of an intellectual approach
to equality.
Created by three Columbia Business School students, "Bitch In Business" puts a feminist manifesto to the tune of Trainor's "All About That Bass." The students, who are part of a group called the CBS Follies, describe the video as "a love letter to all the badass bitches who aren’t afraid to be themselves in the business world."
The
video itself is a bit sharper than Trainor's pastel-filled, hip-shaking
video, and even includes a few slightly NSFW lines, such as: "You say
'Babies are for girls! Business is for boys!'/Try telling THAT to my
stay-at-home fuck toy." Other amazing one-liners include, "Making these
suits look good while I close the wage gap," and "Gettin’ called bitch
means I'm doing something right." Preach.
It's no secret that sexism is alive and well in the business world (along with many, many other industries). If a woman is viewed as too "abrasive" or too "pushy" she runs the risk of being labelled a bitch, but those same qualities in a man might brand him as a strong leader. Everyday sexism at its finest.
We still suggest you play this before any and every upcoming interview.
