    I believe that this song is aimed at songs made by men who believe that degrading women is okay. For example, the line, 'Who's gonna tear it in two?' Is an allusion to Robin Thicke's song blurred lines which portrays women as sexual objects made for men to use. This song uses a sarcastic tone to ridicule men such as Thicke who present women as inferior and continuously objectify them.

    I believe that Lily Allen is trying to present her song in a way that suggests she is feeling insecure. When society is judging you, it is hard to resist changing yourself

    I suppose I should tell you what this bitch is thinkin'
    You'll find me in the studio and not in the kitchen
    I won't be braggin' 'bout my cars or talkin' 'bout my chains
    Don't need to shake my ass for you 'cause I've got a brain

    If I told you 'bout my sex life, you'd call me a slut
    When boys be talkin' about their bitches, no one's makin' a fuss
    There's a glass ceilin' 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

    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

    You're not a size six, and you're not good lookin'
    Well, you better be rich, or be real good at cookin'
    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

    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

    A bitch, a bitch, a bitch, 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 goin' away
    Inequality promises that it's here to stay
    Always trust the injustice 'cause it's not goin' away

    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

    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 (Bitch)
