Lyrics for Back Off Bitch as interpreted by mike

Back Off Bitch Lyrics
Oh baby, pretty baby
Oh honey, you let me down honey
I ain't playin' childhood games no more
I said it's time for me to even the score
So stake your claim, your claim to fame
But baby call another name
When you feel the fire, and taste the flame
Back off, back off bitch
Down in the gutter dyin' in the ditch
You better, back off, back off bitch
Face of an angel with the love of a witch
Back off, back off bitch
Back off, back off bitch
Makin' love
Cheap heartbreaker, broken backed,
Nasty ballbreaker, stay out of my bed,
outta my head
If it's lovin' you, I'm better off dead
Back off, back off bitch
Down in the gutter dyin' in the ditch
You better, back off, back off bitch
Face of an angel with the love of a witch
Back off, back off bitch
Back off, back off bitch
Emotions ripped, gone on a binge
Life lipped I said you're off the hinge
Tellin' lies of such fame and glory
I don't even wanna hear your story
Back off, back off bitch
Down in the gutter dyin' in the ditch
You better, back off, back off bitch
Face of an angel with the love of a witch
Back off, back off bitch
It's such a pity that you're such a bitch
Back off, back off bitch
It's time to burn-burn the witch
Back off, back off bitch
Back off, back off bitch
Back off, back off bitch
Bitch
Bitch
Bitch
Bitch
Hey wha'd'ya think he's tryin' to say there,
anyway?
I think it's something each person's
s'posed to take in their own special way
Fucking bitch

The first time I heard this record, I thought it was brilliant. I'd just broken up with my girlfriend, 'cause she was kept taking me for a ride, and screwing around. I couldn't resist the temptation of sending her a copy,and I haven't heard from her since. It defanatley had the desired effect.

This song kinda reminds me of my sixth grade english teacher. She had the looks of a porn-star, but was the definition of a bitch. Damn we all hated her! GN'F'R rules!!!

I can't help but believe Axl wrote this song about his ex-wife Erin Everly.

Wow... I can't believe I'm actually replying to a post that is 2 years old, but poison_candy, you are totally wrong. Why would (or should I say "How could") Axl write a song that mean to Stephanie in 91 if they only broke up in 93? If the song really IS pointed at someone, then I guess Wumpmom is the one who got it right.

this song is about being in love with someone who doesn't care back, and then you tell them "back off bitch! you don't love me so why should I love you?

How was this song written about Stephanit Seymour? The first recorded demo was in 1986 before Axl even met her, and it was released in 1991 when they were dating. It applies to any ex girlfriend who was a bitch, I'm sure Axl's had many.

This song, from my point of view, is about putting an end to a bad relationship with a friend of yours - Not necessarily a girlfriend - who has seldom shown any feelings for you, and done nothing but use you to achieve fame and glory for him- or herself ("So stake your claim, your claim to fame").

During the timespan from when GN'R got famous upon the release of Appetite for Destruction, to when they started working on the songs on the UYI albums, it's possible that Axl wrote the song about many of the female fans that had hitchhiked on his fame and amused themselves at his expense.

it's not about Erin! it's about being in a relationship with a bitch.
