Taylor Swift - But Daddy I Love Him / So High School
I forget how the West was won
I forget if this was ever fun
I just learned these people only raise you
To cage you
Sarahs and Hannahs in their Sunday best
Clutchin' their pearls, sighing, "What a mess"
I just learned these people try and save you
'Cause they hate you
★ Pre-Chorus ★
Too high a horse
For a simple girl
To rise above it
They slammed the door
On my whole world
The one thing I wanted
★ Chorus ★
Now I'm runnin' with my dress unbuttoned
Screamin', "But, Daddy, I love him"
I'm havin' his baby
No, I'm not, but you should see your faces
I'm tellin' him to floor it through the fences
No, I'm not coming to my senses
I know he's crazy, but he's the one I want
See Taylor Swift LiveGet tickets as low as $143★ Post-Chorus ★
I'll tell you something right now
I'd rather burn my whole life down
Than listen to one more second of all this bitchin' and moanin'
I'll tell you something 'bout my good name
It's mine alone to disgrace
I don't cater to all these vipers dressed in empath's clothing
★ Bridge ★
God save the most judgmental creeps
Who say they want what's best for me
Sanctimoniously performing soliloquies I'll never see
Thinkin' it can change the beat
Of my heart when he touches me
And counteract the chemistry
And undo the destiny
You ain't gotta pray for me
Me and my wild boy and all of this wild joy
If all you want is gray for me
Then it's just white noise, and it's just my choice
★ Verse 2 ★
There's a lot of people in town that I
Bestow upon my fakest smiles
Scandal does funny things to pride, but brings lovers closer
We came back when the heat died down
Went to my parents and they came around
All the wine moms are still holdin' out, but fuck 'em, it's over
★ Chorus ★
Now I'm dancin' in my dress in the sun and
Even my daddy just loves him
I'm his lady
And, oh my God, you should see your faces
Time, doesn't it give some perspective?
And, no, you can't come to the wedding
I know it's crazy, but he's the one I want
★ Post-Chorus ★
I'll tell you something right now
You ain't gotta pray for me
Me and my wild boy and all of this wild joy
(He was chaos, he was revelry)
If all you want is gray for me
Then it's just white noise, and it's my choice
★ Outro ★
Screamin', "But, Daddy, I love him"
I'm having his baby
No, I'm not
But you should see your faces
But, oh my God, you should see your faces
(He was chaos, he was revelry)
(He was chaos, he was revelry)
I feel so high school, every time I look at you
Truth, dare, spin bottles
You know how to ball, I know Aristotle
Brand-new, full throttle
Touch me while your bros play Grand Theft Auto
It's true, swear, Scott's honor
You knew what you wanted and, boy, you got 'er
Brand-new, full throttle
You already know it, babe
You already know it, babe

Biography
Swift made her debut in June 2006 with the release of “Tim McGraw,” a heartfelt ode to a lover who would be leaving town. This song was the first track from her self-titled debut album, which explored themes of heartbreak and bullying that Swift had experienced in her own life. The album became a massive success, spending 227 weeks on the Billboard 200 and establishing Swift as a rising star in the country music scene.
Following the success of her debut, Swift continued to soar to new heights with her sophomore album, Fearless, released in November 2008. Tracks like “Love Story” and “You Belong With Me” not only solidified her status as a country superstar but also crossed over into the mainstream music scene. Fearless became the most-awarded country album of all time, winning accolades such as the Grammy Award for Album of the Year.
Despite her early success, Swift faced doubts about her songwriting abilities, prompting her to write her third album, Speak Now, entirely on her own. The album was a commercial success, becoming the fastest-selling digital album by a female artist in the U.S. at the time. Swift continued to push boundaries and evolve her sound with each new release, culminating in her transition to pop music with the release of her fifth studio album, 1989, in October 2014.
Throughout her career, Swift has faced challenges and controversies, including a highly-publicized feud with rapper Kanye West and a legal battle with a DJ who groped her. However, she has always remained resilient and true to herself, using her platform to speak out on important issues and advocate for artistic ownership.
In recent years, Swift has continued to push boundaries and explore new musical territories with albums like reputation, Lover, folklore, and evermore. She has received numerous accolades and awards for her work, including multiple Grammy Awards and recognition as the Artist of the Decade by the American Music Awards.
Swift's dedication to her craft and her unwavering commitment to authenticity have solidified her status as one of the most influential and successful musicians of her generation. As she continues to re-record her earlier albums to regain legal ownership, Swift shows no signs of slowing down and remains a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.
