Anthem

I know this post will get a big fat eye roll from a few of you.  {I saw that, Randi!}

But Britney has a song out that I absolutely LOVE.

Let's get serious.  I know this is a sassy club anthem for teens and wanna-be 21-year-olds (like myself).  HAVING SAID THAT, I think the message here is so incredibly true and so many people don't freaking get it.  I mean, it's not fancy.  She says it simply.

You wanna, you wanna

You want a hot body? You want a Bugatti?
You want a Maserati? You better work bitch
You want a Lamborghini? Sippin' martinis?
Look hot in a bikini? You better work bitch
You wanna live fancy? Live in a big mansion?
Party in France?
You better work bitch, you better work bitch
You better work bitch, you better work bitch
Now get to work bitch!
Now get to work bitch!

Bring it on, ring the alarm
Don't stop now, just be the champion
Work it hard, like it's your profession
Watch out now, cause here it comes
Here comes the smasher, here comes the master
Here comes the big beat, big beat disaster
No time to quit now, just time to get it now
Pick up what I'm putting down
Pick up what I'm putting down

You want a hot body? You want a Bugatti?
You want a Maserati? You better work bitch
You want a Lamborghini? Sippin' martinis?
Look hot in a bikini? You better work bitch
You wanna live fancy? Live in a big mansion?
Party in France?
You better work bitch, you better work bitch
You better work bitch, you better work bitch
Now get to work bitch!
Now get to work bitch!

Break it off, break it down
See me come and you can hear my sound
Tell somebody in your town
Spread the word, spread the word
Go call the police, go call the governor
I bring the treble, don't mean to trouble ya'
I make the governor, call me the governor
I am the bad bitch, the bitch that you'll never know

Hold your head high, fingers to the sky
They gonna try to try ya', but they can't deny ya'
Keep it moving higher, and higher
Keep it building higher, and higher
So hold your head high, fingers to the sky
Now they don't believe ya', but they gonna meet ya'
Keep it moving higher and higher
Keep it moving higher and higher and higher

Work, work, work, work
Work, work, work, work
Work, work, work, work
Work, work, work
Work it out, work it out, work it out, work it out
Work it out, work it out, work it out, work it out
Work it out, work it out, work it out, work it out
Work it out, work it out
You better work bitch
You better work bitch

You want a hot body? You better work, bitch.

If this song came on while at the gym, I would definitely kick it into 5th gear. It just fires me up!  It's New Years time and of course many of us are thinking about our body's shape and where we want to be.  This was me last year.  On Dec. 28 I signed up for FitOrbit.  I'm the cliche NY resolution.  But I am so damn proud that I am the real deal.  I can't express how satisfying it was to go to the gym today for Leg Day and bask in the victory of making it one year.  Last year I walked in feeling very fat and very out of shape.  This year I walked in feeling fabulous.  So, I will begin my New Year with this song in mind to remind me of the work that it takes.  Of course, if you people need an anthem, I encourage you to use mine.{!}
