ADDITIONAL NOTES
'Bitch' just seemed like the perfect song to use for the character of Xena; it incorporates so many facets of the female persona giving the video a chance to explore as many as possible. It was important for me to touch on as many aspects as I could including her relationships with various other characters in the series, her sexuality - both in orientation and how she uses it to get what she wants - and not forgetting the fact that she kicks arse! She's not a Bitch, she's the Bitch, and that's Miss Bitch to you!

 

BITCH – Meredith Brooks

Introduction

I hate the world today
You’re so good to me I know but I can’t change
Try to tell you
But you look at me like maybe I’m an angel underneath
Innocent and sweet

Yesterday I cried
You must have been relived to see the softer side
I can understand how you’d be so confused
I don’t envy you
I’m a little bit of everything all rolled into one

I’m a bitch, I’m a lover
I’m a child, I’m a mother
I’m a sinner, I’m a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I’m your hell, I’m your dream
I’m nothing in between
You know you wouldn’t want it any other way

So take me as I am
This may mean you’ll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that when I start to make you nervous
And I’m going to extremes
Tomorrow I may change
And today won’t mean a thing

I’m a bitch, I’m a lover
I’m a child, I’m a mother
I’m a sinner, I’m a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I’m your hell, I’m your dream
I’m nothing in between
You know you wouldn’t want it any other way

Interlude

Just when you think you’ve got me figured out
The season’s already changing
I think it’s cool you do what you do
But don’t try to change me

I’m a bitch, I’m a lover
I’m a child, I’m a mother
I’m a sinner, I’m a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I’m your hell, I’m your dream
I’m nothing in between
You know you wouldn’t want it any other way

I’m a bitch, I’m a tease
I’m a goddess on my knees
When you’re hurt
When you suffer
I’m your angel undercover
I’ve been numb
I’m revived
Can’t say I’m not alive
You know I wouldn’t want it any other way
