Like “Busy Woman,” it’s a confident, biting take on power in relationships.
3. Carpenter blends humor with vulnerability, showing both empowerment and insecurity in a way that feels real.
Ultimately, “Busy Woman” is about control. “Well, I didn’t want your little bitch-ass anyway.”
Carpenter’s delivery sells every word.
Like many Sabrina songs, she's not being serious. “Potential Breakup Song” by Aly & AJ
“Potential Breakup Song” has the same sharp attitude and playful frustration with an unreliable partner.
In the US, the track entered at number 7 with 2.051 million streams, demonstrating Carpenter’s growing commercial appeal.
Sabrina Carpenter “Busy Woman” Live Performances
The song made its live debut during Carpenter’s September 30, 2024 Brooklyn show, appearing in the “spin the bottle” surprise cover segment.
One second she’s practically purring “My clothes are off,” the next she’s spitting “bitch-ass” with the precise amount of spite needed to convince absolutely no one that she’s unbothered. Whether you take it as satire, empowerment, or just pure fun, “Busy Woman” is a track that refuses to be ignored.

Sabrina Carpenter - 'Busy Woman' lyrics
INTRO
Oh, hey (Oh)
VERSE 1
I'm so mature, collected, and sensible
Except when I get hit with rejection
To turn me down, well, that's just unethical
I'll turn into someone you're scared to know
CHORUS
But if you need my love
My clothes are off, I'm coming over to your place
And if you don't need (If you don't need) my love
Well, I didn't want your little b---h-ass anyway
Yeah, I'm a busy woman
I wouldn't let you come into my calendar any night
But if you want my kisses, I'll be your perfect missus
'Til the day that one of us dies
Oh, hey
POST-CHORUS
Busy woman, all the time
Busy woman
VERSE 2
So much to shave and lipstick to reapply
Maybe for you, though, I could accommodate
I'm flexible, so just tell me what you like
Tantric yoga, baby, namaste
If you don't want me, I'll just deem you gay
CHORUS
But if you need my love
My clothes are off, I'm coming over to your place (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
And if you don't need (If you don't need) my love
Well, I didn't want your little b---h-ass anyway
Yeah, I'm a busy woman
I wouldn't let you come into my calendar any night
But if you want my kisses, I'll be your perfect missus
'Til the day that one of us dies
BRIDGE
Busy woman, all the time
Busy woman for the rest of my life
My openings are super tight
Busy woman, unless you call at night
Right, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
CHORUS
But if you need my love
My clothes are off, I'm coming over to your place (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
And if you don't need (If you don't need) my love (My love)
Well, I didn't want your little b---h-ass anyway
'Cause I'm a busy woman (Oh, hey)
I wouldn't let you come into my calendar any night
But if you want my kisses, I'll be your perfect missus (Ooh-ooh)

Sabrina Carpenter Breaks Down Her Favourite Lyrics
Listen live to Capital, and catch up on any shows you missed, on Global Player.
“If you don’t want me, I’ll just deem you gay,” it’s the lyric that launched a thousand tweets and sparked heated online debates.
“Cool Girl” by Tove Lo
“Cool Girl” explores the act of pretending not to care, just like “Busy Woman.” Both tracks highlight the contradictions in modern dating, where indifference is often a power move.
Conclusion: A Bold, Playful Take on Desire and Power
“Busy Woman” is both humorous and brutally honest about relationships, attraction, and self-worth.
The song arrives when pop music increasingly embraces complex female narratives.
The title Busy Woman becomes both a shield (“I wouldn’t let you come into my calendar any night”) and a flex (“My openings are super tight”), perfectly capturing that post-rejection phase where you try to convince yourself and everyone else that you’re totally fine, actually.
Sabrina Carpenter “Busy Woman” Lyrics Breakdown
The song’s push and pull between desperation and dismissal reaches its peak in the chorus.
Shall we have a little...
Billie Eilish - "SKINNY"I fell in love for the first time With a friend, it's a good sign Feeling off when I feel fine Twenty-one took a lifetime People say I look happy Just because I got skinny But the old me is still me...
Chappell Roan - "Picture You"Draw the blinds, light every candle Slip off my pretty dress, down my chest when I think of you Every night, both lips on the mirror It's ritualistic, counting lipstick stains where you should be...
Taylor Swift - "Florida!!!"You can beat the heat If you beat the charges too They said I was a cheat I guess it must be true And my friends all smell like weed or little babies And this city reeks of driving myself crazy...
Live performances have revealed new dimensions to the track, with audience reactions particularly highlighting its comedic timing.
“Busy Woman” on Short n’ Sweet (Deluxe)
As of February 2025, Busy Woman sits alongside other new tracks like Bad Reviews on Short n’ Sweet (Deluxe).
The song’s narrator starts by claiming she’s “mature, collected and sensible” but immediately admits that’s only true until rejection hits.
The story unfolds through the eyes of someone who insists they’re far too important to care about being turned down, while simultaneously proving they care very much indeed.
“STFU!” by Rina Sawayama
“STFU!” blends sarcasm, frustration, and humor in a way that feels similar to “Busy Woman.” Both songs challenge expectations and embrace unfiltered emotion.
4.
It’s the group chat energy, the 3 AM notes app rant, the Instagram story indirect all rolled into one gloriously unhinged pop moment.
