​It's hard out here for a b*tch!

睽違四年，英國搞怪才女莉莉艾倫 Lily Allen 終於將推出第三張專輯，勢必再度引爆話題。她的作品總是充滿活力、帶有鮮明色彩，加上諷刺又玩味的歌詞，刻畫生活百態，展現嗆辣十足的音樂態度。搶先送上首支單曲「Hard Out Here」，描敘當今流行文化對女性的歧視。音樂錄影帶由英倫導演 Christopher Sweeney 操刀，其中還模仿嘲弄 Miley Cyrus 在今年 MTV 頒獎典禮的脫序演出以及 Robin Thicke 歌曲「Blurred Lines」MV 片段，引人發噱。

Director - Christopher Sweeney
Producer - Amalia Rosen-Rawlings
Pro. Co. - Good Egg

Lyrics 歌詞：(by 好青年 整理)

[Verse 1: ]
I suppose I should tell you 
What this bitch is thinking
You find me in the studio
And not in the kitchen
I won't be bragging 'bout my cars
Or talking 'bout my chains
Don't need to shake my ass for you
'Cause I've got a brain
If I told you about my sex life
You'd call me a slut
Them boys be talking 'bout their bitches
No one's making a fuss
There's a glass ceiling to break, uh huh
There's money to make
And now it's time to speed it up
'Cause I can't move at this pace

[Hook: ]
Sometimes it's hard to find the words to say
I'll go ahead and say them anyway
Forget your balls, and grow a pair of tits
It's hard, it's hard
It's hard out here for a bitch, it's hard
(For a bitch, for a bitch)
For a bitch, It's hard
It's hard out here for a bitch, it's hard
(For a bitch, for a bitch)
For a bitch, it's hard
It's hard out here

[Verse 2: ]
If you're not a size six
Then you're not good-looking
Well, you better be rich
Or be real good at cooking
You should probably lose some weight
'Cause we can't see your bones
You should probably fix your face
Or you'll end up on your own
Don't you want to have somebody who objectifies you?
Have you thought about your butt, who's gonna tear it in two?
We've never had it so good, uh huh
We're out of the woods
And if you can't detect the sarcasm
You've misunderstood

[Hook]

[Bridge: ]
A bitch, a bitch, a bitch
Bitch, bitch
A bitch, a bitch, a bitch
Bitch, bitch
A bitch, a bitch, a bitch
Bitch, bitch
A bitch, a bitch, a bitch
Bitch, bitch
Inequality promises
That it's here to stay
Always trust the injustice
'Cause it's not going away
Inequality promises
That it's here to stay
Always trust the injustice
'Cause it's not going away

[Hook]

[Outro: ]
For a bitch, It's hard
For a bitch, It's hard
For a bitch, It's hard
It's hard out here for a bitch, it's hard
(For a bitch, for a bitch)
For a bitch, it's hard
It's hard out here
