“Slut!” (Taylor’s Version) [From The Vault]
“Slut!” (Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault)
Written by Taylor Swift, Jack Antonoff & Patrik Berger
Flamingo pink, Sunrise Boulevard
Clink, clink, being this young is art
Aquamarine, moonlit swimming pool
What if all I need is you?
Got love-struck, went straight to my head
Got lovesick all over my bed
Love to think you’ll never forget
Handprints in wet cement
Adorned with smoke on my clothes
Lovelorn and nobody knows
Love thorns all over this rose
I’ll pay the price, you won’t
But if I’m all dressed up
They might as well be lookin’ at us
And if they call me a slut
You know it might be worth it for once
And if I’m gonna be drunk
I might as well be drunk in love
Send the code, he’s waitin’ there
The sticks and stones they throw froze mid-air
Everyone wants him, that was my crime
The wrong place at the right time
And I break down, then he’s pullin’ me in
In a world of boys, he’s a gentleman
Got love-struck, went straight to my head (Straight to my head)
Got lovesick all over my bed (Over my bed)
Love to think you’ll never forget
We’ll pay the price, I guess
But if I’m all dressed up (If I’m all dressed up)
They might as well be lookin’ at us (Lookin’ at us)
And if they call me a slut (If they call me a slut)
You know it might be worth it for once (Worth it for once)
And if I’m gonna be drunk
I might as well be drunk in love
Half asleep, takin’ your time
In the tangerine, neon light, this is luxury
You’re not sayin’ you’re in love with me
But you’re going to
Half awake, takin’ your chances
It’s a big mistake, I said, “It might blow up in your
Pretty face”, I’m not saying, “Do it anyway” (Do it anyway)
But you’re going to
Up!
And if they call me a slut!
You know it might be worth it for once
And if I’m gonna be drunk!
I might as well be drunk in love
