Today's Taylor Swift song is the meaning of "Better Than Revenge" from her "Speak Now" album.
This is a great revenge song. What is worse than your boyfriend
breaking up with you? Your boyfriend breaking up with you because he's
dating another girl!
Who is this song about?
Taylor tells the story in the song. "The story starts when it was hot and it was summer and.I
had it all, I had him right where I wanted him/She came along, got him
alone and let's hear the applause/She took him faster than you could say
'sabotage' ". Taylor started dating Joe Jonas in July 2008, but
was in for a surprise Camilla Belle unexpectedly pulled Joe Jonas out
from under Taylor Swift's nose. They met when he was filming his music
video for "Love bug". She "never saw it coming, wouldn't have suspected it/I
underestimated just who I was dealing with". He broke up with her in
October 2008 and started dating Camilla. Joe broke it off with Taylor
and she was confused and heartbroken, see the song "Forever and Always".
But Taylor has something to say to Ms Camilla Belle, "go stand in the corner and think about what you did".
And to everyone else, "She's not a saint/And she's not what you
think/She's an actress, whoa", "Stealing other people's toys/On the
playground won't/Make you many friends", "Or pushing people down it gets
you where you wanna go." She is letting her know (and the whole world, the revenge part) she did not appreciate her for stealing him and is
helping her learn her lesson. "They wouldn't teach you that in prep
school so it's up to me...There is nothing I do better than revenge"
It didn't last for Camilla and Joe, what does when you start it like that? They broke up in July 2009.
