Baby Bitch Lyrics
this song seems like such an elliott smith song to me
THANK YOU! It's my favorite specifically because of that fact. :)

i like the comment suggesting that the bitch is a drug, although it's not.
i also agree with not having any friends who get ween. i've figured out that its because one song doesn't do it. you need to make them sit and listen to an album from start to finish.
whoever this woman is i hope she realizes how loathsome she is and then is blessed with immortality.
@jubaljam I agree about needing to listen to whole albums to get into, or get, Ween. I've only been into them a few years, and initially I kept checking out individual tunes, and they always didn't make sense to me... then I listened to GodWeenSatan The Oneness and my mind was blown. Now I'm obsessed. I troll the internet for live stuff and they never disappoint. Love Ween!

The singer's ex is back in town after they've been apart for a while. It was a painful breakup. They were once in love but now he's with a new girl so his ex is basically a bitch to him. Despite how awful she can be to him he still misses her but knows things can never go back to how they were.
Ween are awesome.........if anyone actually listens to Ween, your awesome too....
good...i thought i was the only one who thought this sounded like an elliott smith song
People say, "How beautiful, how sweet, how kind" You're perfect, you've got nothing to hide But I, for one, have seen the sun And the bitch that you've locked up inside Got fat, got angry, started hating myself Wrote "Birthday Boy" for you babe Now I'm skinny and sick and paranoid Without a cent to my name
that references how the boy started doing a lot of cocaine [references to cocaine all thorough ween's music] after the horrible relationship.
i can sympathize...
ok so this song is sweet as hell. it is really easy to understand what it is about and is amazing. jason schwartzmann from coconut records suggested it to me through his XM radio takeover with rivers cuomo from weezer. i was searching forever until i found it in a jank record store. has anyone seen the cover for this album? its deceivingly skanky!
Well, I wish you guys knew the story behind this because it is much simpler than a lot of you are making it out to be. This song, along with Birthday Boy, and Sarah, and a couple of others are about Gene Ween's former on and off again girlfriend Sarah. She broke up with him on his birthday, then he wrote Birthday Boy. At some point they got back together or he just used an old song on Pure Guava and that was Sarah, which is also about her. Anyways, after she broke up with him he got depressed and started getting fat, as it says in the song and can be seen from pictures of him from the early 90's. Then he got into some drugs and got really really skinny. There is only picture I know of from that time and it is just sickly looking. Then he got fat again and Chocolate and Cheese came out. If you watch the video for Voodoo Lady you can still see that he is a little chubby as he was loosing the weight again at that time.
Anyways it's just about her coming back to him and being a bitch to the girl he is with and to him and him just telling her off.
@sparky565 I don't think she's the ex in the Baby bitch song, it doesn't add up that way, even though they had an on and off relationship

Sparky565 is 100% correct. This song is about Gener's on again off again girlfriend and now ex-wife, Sarah Poten. They married in 1999 and divorced in 2003, although they had been dating since the early 90s I believe. They have one child together. He also wrote "Sarah" and "Birthday Boy" about her, and possibly some others.
This song was written during a time Gene was broken up with her, and dating someone else. It's kind of funny that he married the subject of this song a few years after it came out.
It's about Barret Christie for certain. Gener said it himself at Bonnaroo 3. I was there to hear it unlike everyone else, because they were at Primus.
Was that not "Birthday Boy"?
