About the Artist
Lyrics
I'm not your mother, I'm not your bitch I hear you mutter under your breath Put up or shut up, it's all the same It's all the same, never changes, never changes I'm not your mother, I'm not your bitch D-did I stutter a little bit? Sit down and shut up, it's all the same It's all the same, never changes, never changes I get most defensive When I know I'm wrong Think we all can agree I try my best at being patient But I can't only put up with so much shit I'm not your mother, I'm not your bitch I hear you mutter under your breath Put up or shut up, it's all the same It's all the same, never changes, never changes

Written in the wake of relocation and reflection, Courtney Barnett’s new album finds her trusting the subconscious - and a well-timed mantis.
It’s still recognisably Barnett - observational, dryly funny, emotionally candid - but presented through a process that feels newly energising.
Fourth record 'Creature of Habit' is out later this week.
The North American tour kicks off in Austin, TX, in May 2026.
She's set to perform the new track on The Tonight Show.
She'll play the shows while in the UK with Foo Fighters.
She's shared three singles from the record.
She'll play Manchester, Brighton and London.
The two shows form part of The Rolling Stone's 60th anniversary tour.
With Alvvays, Bartees Strange, Japanese Breakfast, Julia Jacklin, Lucy Dacus, Sleater Kinney, Snail Mail, Waxahatchee, Wet Leg and more, it's packing a killer line-up.
She's also playing a couple of new UK dates this summer.
Courtney Barnett is on a quest for joy, pulling optimism out of the darkness for a new album that’s quietly hopeful.
