"Venice Bitch" is a psychedelic pop song which runs at nine minutes and thirty-six seconds long, making it Del Rey's longest track to date. Rolling Stone said the song "starts as an tender ballad, with Del Rey unspooling her unique mix of young love and contemporary Americana over an acoustic guitar and subtle strings: "Ice cream, ice queen/ I dream in jeans and leather/ Livestream, I'm sweet for you/ Oh god miss you on my lips/ It's me your little Venice bitch."
Time noted that "the track has plenty of surprises in store, from distortion interludes to muted synth lines of varying insistence to eerie electric guitar plucks."
Produced by Lana Del Rey & Jack Antonoff
Album Norman Fucking Rockwell
Stereogum compared the lyrics to those on Born to Die, but with a "far less pop-oriented" production than that of her previous work. Greil Marcus made comparisons to various songs from the 1960s, including the Beach Boys' "Surfer Girl" and "In My Room", Randy Newman's "Lucinda", and Tommy James and the Shondells' "Crimson and Clover".
