You Want a Piece of Britney Spears?
Okay, don't answer that, Columbus Short. Or you, J.R. Rotem. Or all of you, Isaac Cohen, Jason Filyaw, Howie Day, Matt Encinias, Criss Angel, Shannon Funk and Daimon Shippen. That's just a rhetorical question, aight?
She may have lost custody of her kids as of yesterday, but Britney Spears is still making good music. Or at least music. We've gotten ahold of the lyrics to one of her deep, passionate new songs, entitled "Piece of Me."
In the song, the mother of Jayden James and Sean Preston, seen here going after celebrity news media with an umbrella in February, blames all her problems on being famous and says that the public eye ruins her life.
"You want a piece of me? Come get it, y'all!"
There's even one line (see below), in which Britney sings (and we use that term loosely): "Don't matter if I step on the scene or sneak away to the Philippines, they still got pictures of my derrière in the magazine."
Three points about this, before we move on...
- There's a good chance this is the worst rhyme of all time. No one sneaks away to the Philippines. Come on. That's the best you can do?
- There's no way Britney Spears knows what derrière means.
- Maybe her rear end (that's what it means!) wouldn't be in magazines if she wouldn't run errands or go clubbing in no underwear! Often!
Anyway. Here are the lyrics to "Piece of Me."
I'm Miss bad media karma
Another day another drama
Guess I can't see no harm
In working and being a mama
And with a kid on my arm
I'm still an exception
And you want a piece of me
I'm Mrs. Lifestyles of the rich and famous
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. Oh my God that Britney's Shameless
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. Exta! Extra! this just in
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. she's too big now she's too thin
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. âYou want a piece of me?'
Tryin' and pissin' me off
Well get in line with the paparazzi
Who's flippin' me off
Hopin' I'll resort to startin' havoc
And end up settlin' in court
Now are you sure you want a piece of me?
I'm Mrs. âMost likely to get on TV for strippin' on the streets'
When getting the groceries, no, for real..
Are you kidding me?
Causing panic in the industry
I mean, please, do you want a piece of me?
I'm Mrs. Lifestyles of the rich and famous
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. Oh my God that Britney's Shameless
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. Exta! Extra! this just in
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. she's too big now she's too thin
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Miss American Dream since I was 17
Don't matter if I step on the scene
Or sneak away to the Philippines
They still got pictures of my derrière in the magazine
You want a piece of me?
You want a piece of meâ¦
You want a piece of me?
I'm Mrs. Lifestyles of the rich and famous
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. Oh my God that Britney's Shameless
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. Exta! Extra! this just in
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. she's too big now she's too thin
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. Lifestyles of the rich and famous
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. Oh my God that Britney's Shameless
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. Exta! Extra! this just in
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. she's too big now she's too thin
(You want a piece of me)
Oh yeah
You want a piece of me...

Well, she clearly wrote that mess. My dog can poop a better song that this. I can't think of any other way to describe her. She's just a beast. And she deserves to be caged like any other animal that doesn't know how to function in society.

i heard a snippet of this song and whether the lyrics may sound crappy she "sings" the lyrics and makes it soo hott...hell yeah ill have a piece of you!
October 26th, 2007 12:39 PM
What ever1 The song rocks. It doesn't need to Rhyme to sound good. Excellent 5 stars job
November 1st, 2007 12:38 AM
This is one HOT song. Britneys back bitch!
November 5th, 2007 3:52 PM
Stop attacking her, this song is great - her album is great.. I mean are people really sad to see her do something good? Get a life, Britney's back & obviously still has fans.
November 5th, 2007 11:33 PM
lol@you, Beth
She didn't write that mess at all
Of the two songs she co-wrote on the album, this wasn't one of them
Since when has Britney ever been about lyrics
Britney is about bad music made incredibly fun, and enjoying the hilarity of her public stunts
So shut the fuck up and enjoy it, bitches

Who wrote this stinkin comment? Britney may be a messed-up celeb but this song's cool, maybe too cool for this dog-faced ignoramus who posted this. And no one sneaks away to the Philippines? I've been to many places, and they have one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. You don't know anything coz you don't have enough money to travel the world and visit places like I do. I bet the farthest you've gone is your shitty toilet. Get a life. Earn money. Don't attack Britney just because your life is worth less than her pouch bag.

Whether or not she wrote it, however it is delivered, it's an extremely catchy song. I don't think Brit was ever known for her amazing talent; but she usually is pretty good at cranking out some catchy songs that easily get stuck in your head. Which to some extent is all she needs.

whoever wrote this article is stupid as hell! some celebs sneak away to the philippines! george clooney and mariah carey were spotted at some hidden private resort. you obviously don't know what it's like to be a celebrity so stop hating on britney.

"No one sneaks away to the Philippines. Come on. That's the best you can do?"
Excuse me... NO ONE sneaks away to the Philippines?! Where have YOU been?! o_0
December 17th, 2007 8:54 PM
WTF no one sneaks to the Philippines? Have you even BEEN there? The Philippines is one of the greatest places I've been to. T_T So maybe you should shut your mouth before you say something like that!
December 26th, 2007 7:52 PM
She can't pronounce derriére properly :p
December 28th, 2007 2:12 PM
whatever britney does, an issue comes out of it. oh well, she is still the great britney.
December 30th, 2007 8:06 AM
i love the song,dnt care wat fuss ppl make out of it, i mean GROW UP!!!!!!!!!
January 2nd, 2008 10:04 AM
Being in the Pacific is enough credibility to tell you people that there are over 7,000 islands in the Philippines and there are several beaches that over 1million tourists visit. Im sure Britney spent some days on one of the islands as Mariah Carey did.
believe me, hollywood people sneak away to the Pacific and most people wouldnt know that.
January 7th, 2008 12:53 AM
I think Britney did well on this song. It was a stab at the media, for all the crap they put her though. I like it, it shows she doesnt give a shet what other people say about her anymore. Shes famous - their not. Have a nice life
January 7th, 2008 8:05 AM
No one sneaks away to the Philippines. Come on. That's the best you can do?
bloody hell ! for your information..
The only Asian country where most people speak English. THE PHILIPPINES!!!! thats why .. and a hundreds island that you can perfect treat to enjoy the sunlight. perfect spot for theraphy.
January 8th, 2008 12:11 AM
Fuck all you haters! This song is mad! Britney is having a hard time at the moment so why dnt u all just cut her sum slack.
This article is so bloody stupid! You need to get a life and stop bitching about how others live theres. Its HER life not yours so get over it!
January 9th, 2008 9:02 PM
yehh nufin' wrong wid "The Philippines" ^_^ its great she mentioned it, been there many times, may not have the publicity of Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam but I'm tellin' ya you're missin' out if u haven't been 'ere: BORACAY all the way~`! Discover the 7,107 islands, the pearl of the Orient~`!
*back to the point more power to Britney~`!
January 12th, 2008 3:40 AM
Beth,
You clearly haven't got a clue when it comes to music; and I think it's hilarious that this song that you hate so much is actually written about people just like you! That's so damn funny and your comments have made you look like a damn fool.
If you think you're such a music / lyrical expert, where are all the songs you've written hey? Britney may not have made all the right decisions in life but she's brought music to the world which is (I'm sure) much, much, much more than you've ever done, or will do, for that matter! Keep your dim-witted comments to yourself, and go and enjoy your dog poop!
January 23rd, 2008 4:47 PM
omg some of these comments are pretty harsh.. come on i agree with that fan chris.. i mean come on alright she has these kids then her husband is buying the drugs then she was a sungle mom and went through a period of DEPRESSION!! give her a break
February 17th, 2008 3:37 PM
