The Bitch Is Back
From Tv Tropes
The Bitch Is Back is the famous song by Elton John. It has since been used repeatedly in popular culture (though it may be Older Than They Think). Compare This Is For Emphasis Bitch. Often an Oh Crap moment.

Picking on poor pathetic Cordy? Well, get ready to haul your wrinkly translucent ass out of this place, because lady, the bitch is back.
