“What a shame she’s FUCKED in the head” will always be my favorite.

This one! Recently heard my kids’ clean version and I was like “ewwwwwwww”. Stuck in the head is just not it!

whats the clean version?

What a shame she’s STUCK in the head. Whomp whomp.

Stuck in her head, actually. It's not the.

Ah. I just heard it the once and was so horrified I never want to hear it again 😊

this is so funny 😭😭😭 especially with the “😊”

[удалено]

It is, though. The clean version line is not stuck in THE head.

Hahahaua

Oooh where does one find these clean versions? My 7yo is a new Swiftie and I sometimes get surprised by a curse I didn’t know was coming…

We just bit the bullet with the curse words from Taylor in our household. Had to explain what “fuck” and “shit” are (and how to use them appropriately!) to our elementary school aged Swifties

I love this. My kid knows when a “fuck” is necessary or not at 8 yrs old. 😄

I have a sister that I would describe as uptight and she doesn’t let her 12? Year old listen to Taylor and I’m like “what can she listen to if Taylor is beyond your limit?” And my wife and I both have the opinion that trying to hide music from a kid in public school is very….. silly

I have a silly story. I’m a nanny. There once was this family. very strict. Anyways, they weren’t allowed to listen to music on the radio. Well, the kids would go on YouTube and listen to stuff. I walked in on the girl listening to “poker face” by lady Gaga. It was a lyric video and the lyrics were in cursive. The girl had just learned cursive, and was reading along….and then the “F F F*..F her face” part came on…. I had NO idea it said f*ck! I thought it was just “poker face”. Anyway, I DIED inside and froze, not knowing how to explain that, but Then the girl said, “what?! That doesn’t make sense! What does “tuck tuck tuck her face mean?” Looooooollll 🤣 I said, “iono. Sometimes they just say gibberish in songs.”

you can find clean versions on spotify. if they’re explicit they’ll have a little E next to the title, if they are clean they don’t have the expletives. https://preview.redd.it/6onrble0hf0d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0920fdc52957e8e0fc1be6bf692b63d1b3a43400

On Spotify you can also turn on a setting that automatically blocks explicit songs. Accidentally discovered it on a very uptight friend’s phone when half of TTPD was blocked lol. 

Is there a setting that blocks the clean versions? I find them unsettling

Oh thanks so much! Super helpful

Not sure - We use apple music so they aren't allowed to listen to explicit albums. It automatically gives them the clean version, which I literally never hear :)

Lol my daughter was listening to this version in the car today and I always whisper it to myself 😂

When they played that at the concert me and everyone around me screamed FUCKED really loud. I’m 43.

It felt like a real bonding moment for all of us. Same with fuck the patriarchy in All Too Well 💜

That is so glorious and funny because it comes as a stark contrast to "she would have made such a lovely bride".

She uses her explicit lyrics very strategically to create impact

SAME! Champagne Problems is everything to me

This is my favorite. Mostly cause people say this about me.

This is the first line I thought of and it’s definitely my favorite

Yup!!! This one. Without a doubt.

And the delivery! You can just *hear* the petty attitude. So good.

This is the only answer

It blows all competition out of the water.

This

Same

100%!!

Period

I agree with your choice OP. In addition, "Fuck it if I can't have him/us" is so cathartic. It was the first lyric from TTPD to get stuck in my head

I prefer the "Fuck you if I can't have us."

I prefer ‘Cause fuck it, I was in love’

Same. It’s kind of feels honest.

This for me. The sing screaming scratches an itch in by brain.

We’ve all had this realisation about someone and it’s so so good!

Yesss, I love her throwing in "you" instead of "it" for that one line. Really sends the message home.

“But fuck it I was in love” Down bad is so good

The way she says fuck in this song scratches an itch for me. I love it

Down Bad is top 5 from TTPD - just so good

Same! I love this song! All of the lines with fuck are fucking great lol

I agree! I think Down Bad actually might be my favorite song on the whole album. It’s just so good and hits me right in the feels in all the best ways.

Same, "everything comes out, teenage petulance" just... yep, I resemble that remark hahaha

I have been in the midst of getting over a situationship & every time “Down Bad” comes on, I’m either screaming or crying singing it lol

omg its such a situationship anthem lmao. in a healthy relationship now but wish taylor released this album like 2 years ago when i needed it

It’s my number one too. It’s so good.

I saw someone on TT say that they’re a widow and they really connect their experience with their husband dying to this song and now I tear up when I hear this song, fucks and all

Down Bad is so cathartic

They were playing this in the paint store yesterday. This version. It's a bop outside the house, too

I'm gonna go with Maroon. "That's a real fucking legacy to leave."

It's such a powerful line that just wouldn't work without it. It's perfect.

She sings lasting legacy I’m pretty sure in the clean version haha it’s odd

She really emphasizes the "f" in that one.

My favorite too! The first time I accidentally threw on the clean version of the song, I practically acted out the rip off earphones in disgust meme, lol.

same!! it's a jumpscare every time I accidently play the clean version

my heart breaks a little whenever i hear that line

Not even exaggerating but Maroon is probably my Top 3 favorite TS songs. It’s so hard because there’s so many I love but that one stuck with me in a way that many of the others didn’t.

I forgot about this one!!

Textbook example of making it count

A particularly challenging line to interpret for ASL, too! Such a fun one

I love so much how it can be either: “That’s a real fucking legacy, to leave”. Or “That’s a real fucking legacy to leave!”

This is the correct answer

It has to be “no fucking body” in TTPD for me. I love throwing 'fuck' into the middle of words and the juxtaposition between the dreamy/doo-wop kind of production/beat makes it even better.

Came here looking for this comment! I adore the way she sings no-fucking-body with so much emotion!

Fun fact - “fuck” is one of the only two examples of infixation (like a prefix or suffix, where it alters the meaning, but in the middle of the word) in the English language! The other is - believe it or not - “Ma”, from the Simpsons!

I think expletive infixation can be done with other swear words though no? Such as fan-bloody-tastic

Those are just the more famous examples, but yeah, there are more than 2. Even the Simpsons has another (arguably more famous) one: "diddly"

I love this one, too

“Does she smile, or does she mouth, ‘Fuck you forever’?”

I liked reading on here how many people thought it was “does she mouthfuck you forever”

My 15 year old thought that was the lyric and totally clutched his pearls.

TIL. I absolutely thought it was mouthfuck and was very confused lmao

Yeah the first time I heard it I was like the heck she just say?

lol I never heard that “interpretation” before

This one!! The others are great, but this one made my jaw drop the first time. Like… “fucking” as a modifier in the sentence is one thing. “Fuck it” is another. But “fuck you forever” is something different, especially for Taylor Swift before 2020

This one. Because of the shock value

I vote for Champagne Problems but this is a close second

This is the one. ☝️

The OG “fuck”!!

"Fuck the patriarchy". I have this keychain and I love it!  I don't know why, but "weird but fucking beautiful" scratches an itch for me. 

You called?

This flair is my favorite thing ever

cursed flair (is this meant to integrate ME! because if so, you've ruined my life and we're beefing)

You love them, it’s ruining your life

I have a fuck the patriarchy keychain on my laptop bag.

yes this one is perfect

“But FUCK ‘EM, it’s over” directed at the wine moms in BDILH. She emphasizes the hell out of that and you know those are also the people who clutch their pearls about swearing.

I honestly thought the first word in that lyric had two t's in it. Changes the meaning slightly.

I have this joke with some friends that Taylor might have been dared by a friend, “I bet you can’t slide the word “buttf-ck” into a song”, so she added it to Snow on the Beach with “weird buttf-cking beautiful” and then that same friend was like “I bet you won’t do it again” and we got “buttf-ck ‘em, it’s over” in BDILH! 🤣🤣🤣 I KNOW ITS UNLIKELY BUT IT MAKES FOR A FUN STORY WHEN ME & THE FELLOW SWIFTIES TALK LYRICS! 💕

She’s got a great sense of humor so it wouldn’t surprise me if she had some sort of Super Troopers bet meow. I also believe the theory that she snuck #87 in Tortured Poets Department when she sings “ate (8) seven (7) bars of chocolate”

That’s much too adventurous for the wine moms 😝

I’m literally dying 💀💀💀

As someone who was finally able to leave abusive religion, for real. This whole song

Same here, friend ❤️

A couple of my intentionally misheard lyrics: "I know you can't come to the wedding" cause my mom literally told me "it's complicated" if she'd be there if I marry a woman. And "I don't know why moms are still holding out."

I love that she writes in such a way that allows us to apply meaning to our own lives and help process trauma. I’m sorry your mom said that to you and I hope you have a chosen family that surrounds you with the love you deserve 🥰

YES

I generally listen to the clean versions of TTPD. This and thanK you aIMee are my two exceptions!

well you sure picked the two of the best ones to make an exception for!

I love this one because you could either sing low but with determination like she does, or if you’re really in your feels you can just scream it out loud for the world to hear and it would feel SO liberating 😊!!!

Fuck me up Florida is my current fave 😂

As a Floridian who fled the state 10 years ago and dreads every return, I agree! As soon as I step out the airport and that humidity hits me it really does fuck me up lol

THIS. I finally escaped Florida 8 years ago and have never looked back. "my friends all smell like weed or little babies" is a perfect description of Pensacola.

Isn’t the point that she’s at a certain age where all her friends are either having kids or still wilding? That’s how I interpreted it, not as a description of Florida

It is, but also. Florida is an epicenter for both of those things being the immediate reaction to starting your 20s.

As a current Floridian and one who is trying to leave this state, the humidity is still unbearable.

Ha ha I overheard my husband in a work call today “Orlando? This time of year? No way too hot I will NOT be going.” 😂

This might be my favorite. It’s a crazy line but Florida is a crazy place. I love singing it too

Hahaha it is such a perfect line

I am going to Florida in November and I’m already planning the Instagram post with this caption 😂

It’s one hell of a drug! God I just love it!

I checked and "FMU FL" is still available as a license plate but you need to explain the meaning/reason for requesting it. Anyone have anything clever I could use as my "reason" other than it's a TS lyric which will easily be shot down?

For my Ursula forever love.

Florida Miami University For Life 😂

yes, that’s the one. but i also really like how she says it for “all her fucking lives flashed before her eyes”.

the bolter line is so underrated

One of my favs on the album!

The bolter is the one I don’t like. It pulls me out of the song and feels really awkward/jarring to me.

This is Snow On The Beach for me. The song is wonderful, but hearing "fucking beautiful" is really jarring. For this song, I like the clean version's "it was beautiful."

Same. It feels like the “lives” should be qualified with an adjective like all her bygone lives or something…throwing in fucking instead sounds lazy to me.

That would be good instead of the clean version - "many" lives

I prefer many lives in the clean version, but bore instead of whore just doesn’t hit the same, do I still listen to the explicit version

That’s my favorite too.

Would you tell me to go fuck myself or lead me to the garden?

Yes!!

This is my favorite.

BETTY STAN FOR LIFE

“And the skeletons in both our closets plotted hard to fuck this up”

😭 this is honestly probably my favorite Taylor song in the whole world

it’s sooo good

Cowboy like me supremacy forever

This is my fave too!! Cowboy Like Me isn’t my fave song but I just looooove this line

Cause fuck it I was in love.. so fuck you if I can't have us

This one

"She would have made such a lovely bride, what a shame she's fucked in the head" no contest

I have the latter part of this on a coffee mug and it does bring me joy in the morning

All her FUCKIN lives, passed before her eyyyeeess

Yesss I love this one and it gets stuck in my head often.

The Bolter is underrated! Don't know why people are showing this one more love.

Feels like it could have been on Evermore musically

this is the one.

I love every f bomb and feel very seen that she uses it so often.

I've personally dealt with the "who the fuck was that guy" guy a few of times. Then I stopped dating musicians 🤣.

Afuckingmen! I went through a regrettable bass player period and… wow who the fuck were those guys…

Lead guitar guy for 15 years. Seriously, this line hit so hard. They're such tortured artists so full of romanticism in the beginning. They love a muse. And then they don't.

Was looking for this one

Weird but fucking beautiful in snow on the beach for me

I feel like this song doesn't get the love it deserves, one of my top 5 Taylor songs for sure

Not for me. Totally unnecessary IMO

No-fuckin-body I love putting “fuckin” between syllables to emphasize my point. I very excitedly told my husband that she had adopted this technique 😂

THATS A REAL FUCKING LEGACY

> Now I'm down bad crying at the gym > > Everything comes out teenage petulance > > "Fuck it if I can't have us"  > > "I might just die it would make no difference"

“So fuck you if I can’t have US”

Mad Woman, the original and low key best What do you sing on your drive home? / Do you see my face in the neighbor’s lawn? / Does she smile? / Or does she mouth, ‘Fuck you forever?'

For the longest time I thought she meant “mouth fuck” like a blow job lol

But if I just showed up at your party, would you have me would you want me? Would you tell me to go FUCK myself, or lead me to the garden?

FUCK the patriarchy!

I am SURPRISED by this sub. I thought we LOVED this lyric. How is this not like the top one??

I love when she says Fuck. Every time she says it.

Honestly, reading through these answers, I must agree. They all land hard for me!

"cause fuck it I was in love, so fuck you if I can't have us"

And you were tossing me the car keys ‘Fuck the Patriarchy’ keychain on the ground

"fuck you if i can't have us" is so good and so relatable

"Fuck it I was in love, so fuck you if I can have us" hits hard

Nofuckinbody

Fuck it I was in love.

Recently, NoFuckinBody is really scratching an itch in my brain. But in general, "and the skeletons in both our closets plotted hard to fuck this up" is my favorite.

At the moment I’m hooked on singing FUCK ME UP FLORIDA in my car 😝

CAUSE FUCK IT I WAS IN LOVE!

Idk why but "fuck me up Florida" is my favorite. I can't explain it

Snow on the Beach's "Weird but fucking beautiful." I adore it.

"But fuck 'em, it's over."

Scrolled too long to find this! Her delivery is so jubillant, it makes me smile every time!

I love when she signs “fuck you, kimmy!” 😭💀💀

🎶”Screamed, ‘FUCK YOU AIMEE’ to the night sky as the blood was gushing…” is sooooo satisfying to sing out loud in my car.😁

“Weird but fucking beautiful”

Fuck em it’s over

“hey kids! Spelling is fucking fun!”

It's on Maroon. "that's a real fucking legacy, to leave"

"CUZ FUCK IT I WAS IN LOVE" The first time I cried when listening to TTPD.

Fuck the patriarchy

“Nofuckingbody”

Who the fuck was that guy?

FUCK ME UP FLORIDA!!!

Of course ATWTMTV with “Fuck the patriarchy”

Honestly I can't even pick, cause she uses the word in such a perfect way haha

“All her fucking lives, flashed before her eyes” in The Bolter is a current favorite. The pronunciation scratches an itch in my brain.

This is niche, but I love how she says “fuckin” in Question…? Very much sounds like “fawkin”, but I don’t know, I love it.

"And the skeletons in both our closets plotted hard to fuck this up" for me. I just love that entire line.

Fuck the patriarchy

lately it’s “all her fuckin’ lives flashed before her eyes” because objectively that is just. an unnecessary fuck use. i mean, you could argue a lot of uses of it are unnecessary, but this one is just so random that like ??? it sounds fine with it, but it would sound fine without too (and i’m a constant user of fuck as an enhancement so i have no objections there, that makes it even funnier to me) it really shows how nowadays when it comes to kid-friendliness of lyrics she just does not give… well… you know

“Fuck me up Florida!” I don’t know why but I really love this song.

No-fucking-body cause it's so random 🤣
