Von Wegen Lisbeth turn everyday trivia into a playful roller-coaster of indie pop irony. In “Bitch” the singer rattles off a stream of random updates – an antivirus notice, a traffic jam near Rathenow, a pigeon hit by the subway, Beckham’s fifth baby plan, even a killer catfish in a Berlin lake. All these miniature newsflashes sound cheerful at first, yet they highlight how our days can be filled with constant, meaningless information.
Amid this chatter, the chorus suddenly bursts out: “Bitch, ich bin für dich den ganzen Weg gerannt … alleine bis zu dir.” The narrator insists that he has run all the way for this person, only to confess that at “three minutes before half past seven” he briefly forgot them. The contrast is both comical and bittersweet. It suggests a relationship where devotion is claimed but attention drifts, maybe because the modern world keeps bombarding us with tiny headlines and distractions. In the end the song pokes fun at both the drama of love and the chaos of daily life, reminding us that even the most passionate promises can get lost between weather reports and subway pigeons.
