About as far as you can get from a touching romantic melody, this tune includes the phrase “She’s bitchin’ again” thirty-six times. And writer (and Dude of Life) Steve Pollak’s three verses don’t add much candlelight with their nine complaints, ranging from “I thought you said you’d bring me some flowers” to “When are you going to buy me a house?”
Phish has only performed the song live once, in the encore for Amy’s Farm (8/3/91) featuring Sofi Dillof “singing” the complaints, as she did in the 1991 studio recording for Pollack's 1994 debut release. Both the live and studio versions also featured Pollak.

She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again drivin' me crazy
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again drivin' me nuts
"I thought you said
You'd bring home the groceries
I thought you said you'd fill up the tank
I thought you said you'd pull out for me
A hundred-fifty dollars from the bank"
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again drivin' me crazy
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again drivin' me crazy
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again drivin' me nuts
"I thought you said
You'd bring me some flowers
You came home with nothing
You dirty rat fink
I thought you said you'd
Clean up the living room
You said you'd do the dishes in the sink"
"I'm sick and tired of your childish behavior
You're always coming home completely soused
I'm sick and tired of this shoebox apartment
When are you going to buy me a house?"
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again drivin' me crazy
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again drivin' me nuts
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again drivin' me crazy
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again
She's bitchin' again drivin' me nuts
