LYRICS
In Sears and Robucks in 1957,
In my last life all good girls would go to Heaven
But I've a strangeness, a queer propensity for twisting the knife too easily.
When I think I'm getting better I'm just getting worse
When I think I've got it made I am impossibly cursed.
When did I become such a bitch?
And how did I let this happen? I don't know
When did I become such a bitch?
I used to be so nice.
It's like a sickness, I'm powerless to stop it
My boring life, my little heart made misanthropic
Don't give me reasons, just give me therapy
But really just give me what I want.
When I think I'm getting better I'm evil again
When I think I've got it fixed I am ...
When did I become such a bitch?
And how did I let this happen? I don't know
When did I become such a bitch?
I used to be so nice
Well, I used to be alright.
But I hate everyone and everything all of the time
And being so cruel - 'cause all the pleasure that I get
My wicked tongue helps me forget
Myself and all my foolish ways
'Cause being good is just so fucking boring
La, la, la, it's boring.
When I think I'm getting better I'm just getting worse
When I think I've got it made I am impossibly cursed.
When I think that I'm better I'm worse, yes, I am.
When I think that I'm better I find that I'm cursed.
When did I become such a bitch?
And how did I let this happen? I don't know
When did I become such a bitch?
I used to be so nice once upon a time.
Oh, when did I become such a bitch?
And how did I let this happen? I don't know
When did I become such a bitch?
I used to be so nice
Well, I used to be alright.

I like this girl, has a good voice and is very pretty, but a question
The song signifies that i think?
I don't know what you think exactly. But in this context "bitch" is not a whore. Is more or less something like a bad person. The song talks about changes of personalities, and she has a great sense of humor.
Ok, thank you for your comment
Not at all. I hope I've been helpful. "bitch" not only means "whore". It can be a "female dog" and all that means this concept. And I think these lyrics try to say something like that.
