The album version is slightly different than the one Eilish debuted alongside a revealing video in 2020.<\/b>
\nBillie Eilish made news in March 2020 when she debuted a head-turning video during a concert, in which she spoke about body shaming and expectations, all while taking off her shirt. A couple months later, she released that video as a short film titled \u201cNot My Responsibility.\u201d When Eilish later shared the tracklist for Happier Than Ever (which is out today), it was revealed that a song called \u201cNot My Responsibility,\u201d presumably derived from the short film of the same name, was included. Indeed, the album version of the song seems to be mostly the same as the audio from the short film, except for the transition into \u201cOverHeated\u201d that\u2019s tacked onto the end of the album version. The track gets its title from the closing lines: \u201cIf I wear more, if I wear less \/ Who decides what that makes me, what that means? \/ Is my value based only on your perception? \/ Or is your opinion of me not my responsibility?\u201d Listen to \u201cNot My Responsibility\u201d above and find the song\u2019s lyrics below. \u201cDo you know me? Really know me? You have opinions about my opinions About my music About my clothes About my body Some people hate what I wear Some people praise it Some people use it to shame others Some people use it to shame me But I feel you watching Always And nothing I do goes unseen So while I feel your stares, your disapproval or your sigh of relief If I lived by them, I\u2019d never be able to move Would you like me to be smaller, weaker, softer, taller? Would you like me to be quiet? Do my shoulders provoke you? Does my chest? Am I my stomach? My hips? The body I was born with Is it not what you wanted? If I wear what is comfortable, I am not a woman If I shed the layers, I\u2019m a slut Though you\u2019ve never seen my body, you still judge it And judge me for it Why? We make assumptions about people based on their size We decide who they are We decide what they\u2019re worth If I wear more, if I wear less Who decides what that makes me, what that means? Is my value based only on your perception? Or is your opinion of me not my responsibility?\u201d Happier Than Ever is out now via Darkroom\/Interscope. Get it here.<\/p>\n
