Analyze It: Better Than Revenge
Taylor's album, Speak Now, profiles many of the relationships she's had over the past few years, including long and short term loves with Joe Jonas, Taylor Lautner, and John Mayer. This specific song, Better Than Revenge, is thought to be about Camilla Belle. Joe Jonas broke up with Swift and quickly moved on to Belle. The hidden message in Swift's lyrics spell out "YOU THOUGHT I WOULD FORGET," and Taylor herself says on her site "The song "Better Than Revenge" is about a girl, who a few years ago, stole my boyfriend. I think she probably thought I forgot about it, but I didn't."

Taylor Swift: Better Than Revenge
Now go stand in the corner and think about what you did
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 from
Chorus
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 peoples' 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
Repeat Chorus
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
Repeat Chorus
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
She took him faster than you could say sabotage
