This song is a scathing criticism of the music biz's treatment of women and its objectification problem. "There's a glass ceiling to break, there's money to make, it's time to speed it up," Allen sings. She told The Evening Standard: "I think objectification of women is fine if I feel that there is a sense of ownership from the woman. If it comes from somewhere else and it feels like the woman is being coerced or forced into something then it's gross."
This sharp-tongued feminist tirade was Allen's first original self-penned song to be released since her 2009 second album It's Not Me, It's You.
Allen satirically uses the non-female-friendly term "bitch" a number of times in the song, maybe in reference to a certain Britney Spears tune.
