Better Than Revenge

Taylor Swift

Transposer:

(ª casa) The story starts when it was hot and it was Summer and I had it all I had him right there 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 I never saw it coming wouldn’t have suspected it I underestimated just who I was dealing with She had to know the pain was beating on me like a drum She underestimated just who she was stealing from. (Refrão) She’s not a saint and she’s not what you think She’s an actress whoa But she’s better known for the things that she does on the mattress Whoa Soon she’s gonna find stealing other people’s toys on the playground won’t make you many friends She should keep in mind She should keep in mind There is nothing I do better than revenge She looks at life like it’s a party and she’s on the list She looks at me like I’m a trend and she’s so over it I think her ever present frown is a little troubling She thinks I’m psycho cause I like to rhyme her name with things But sophistication isn’t what you wear or who you know Or pushing people down to get you where you wanna go They didn’t teach you that in prep school so it’s up to me That no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity. She’s not a saint and she’s not what you think She’s an actress whoa But she’s better known for the things that she does on the mattress Whoa Soon she’s gonna find stealing other people’s toys on the playground won’t  make you many friends She should keep in mind She should keep in mind There is nothing I do better than revenge I’m just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey You might have him but haven’t you heard I’m just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey You might have him but I always get the last word Whoa. She’s not a saint and she’s not what you think She’s an actress whoa But she’s better known for the things that she does on the mattress Whoa Soon she’s gonna find stealing other people’s toys on the playground won’t  make you many friends She should keep in mind She should keep in mind There is nothing I do better than revenge Do you still feel like you know what you’re doing Cause I don’t think you do Oh do you still feel like you know what you’re doing I don’t think you do I don’t think you do Let’s hear the applause Come on show me how much better you are See you deserve some applause Cause you’re so much better

Du même artiste :

Dans cette chanson, l'artiste raconte une histoire de trahison et de vengeance. Elle évoque comment une autre femme a réussi à séduire l'homme qu'elle aimait, la laissant dans une situation douloureuse. Elle dépeint cette rivale comme étant superficielle, se concentrant sur les apparences plutôt que sur des valeurs authentiques. L'artiste souligne qu'elle n'est pas dupe et qu'elle sait que, derrière le charme de sa rivale, se cache une fausse image. Le contexte de la chanson semble s'inscrire dans une réflexion sur les relations amoureuses et les rivalités féminines. Elle aborde des thèmes universels tels que l'amour, la jalousie et la nécessité de défendre sa dignité face aux attaques. C'est une manière de remettre en question les normes sociales liées à l'image et à la manière dont les femmes se perçoivent et se comportent entre elles.
