Lily Allen has been all about new beginnings since she's made her return to music and her latest video is about just as weird as one can get. In her effort to move away from the mainstream, Allen has chosen to opt for some interesting visuals and the most provocative lyrics she can think of.

Her song “Sheezus” makes references to all the main names in the pop industry today like Rihanna, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and all the rest, as she sings “give me that crown [expletive], let me be Sheezus.”

The lyrics only get weirder from here, as Lily turns to rapping about her period, while dressed in a hoodie and having animated effects added to her face, “It makes me angry, I'm serious, but then again, I'm just about to get my period/Periods, we all get periods.”

The entire chorus line goes something like this: “Ri-Ri isn't scared of Katy Perry's roaring, Queen Bey's gone back to the drawing/Lorde smells blood yeah, she's about to slay you, Kid ain't one to [expletive] with when she's only on her debut/ We're all watching Gaga, LOL haha, dying for the art so really she's a martyr.”

As you can see, she's taking hits at all the big players, so there's bound to be some controversy after this video is going to start playing on the radio stations.

The video can be seen by clicking on this link but be warned there is some strong language in Lily's song.
