Ode To Taylor Swift and the Car Park Incident

Ode to Taylor Swift and the Car Park Incident Today I saw the most ridiculous thing Taylor Swift existing backwards from a car park So she wouldn’t be seen On her un-best side that is Does she look beautiful on one side And from the other a fiend? Has she been fooling us all these years? And maybe the other half of her is green? Her management team seemed concerned To get her in the car Without the un-best side been seen Which might make us go AAAAAGGHH!!!! And then she was spirited away Without sight of the other side, which is green Thanks Christ they cried! Her career has lived to fight another day What would we do without the likes of this Increasingly skinny child in our way Making a mint for us every day Why she does all the work and starves herself, while we get royally paid! Why let her green side get in the way?! This recent behaviour smacks of a change of direction (Maybe that’s what the green is it’s with the new wind – she’s caught an infection) Has she milked the country market for too long? Or is there more money in pop to be got? Where all its stars have to appear To be anything they are not Oh no! Taylor perhaps you have a spot! Because it’s not to do with music any more It’s about selling you everything that Lines the shelves of your local store The creams, lotions, potions and more Dreams you will never have because they’re not real But all available on finance or for a steal! And in case you think to poor Taylor I am being mean There are literally thousands of them worldwide on the scene She now appears no different to the ones that have come before Too skinny generic and anything but poor Never sad, mad or bad Unless they’re carving out an adult carer – you know like that lad It’s ok though he’s cleaned up You know ‘The Beebster’ who since his crimes Has been on Oprah, found god, and got away with it a thousand times You see they’re just a kind (and not just Taylor and Our Just) With a management team an image With only a $ sign on their mind To the real value of music they are all completely blind They’re everything real music is not So to this image conscious lot their Management Teams and ‘friends’ From those who love music – F*CK OFF! And let the world of music just breathe again So we can at last we can all make some real music loving friends

Very interesting read. It's so sad when talent gets marketed in that way. :( The music industry as well as the film industry suffer from all that you have mentioned. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this with us.

Does anybody still listen to her music? My teenagers do not and neither do I. My husband thinks if she was a cow he'd shoot her to put her out of her misery--too thin and poor. Perhaps not in money but she has bankrupted herself to all that is important. Thanks I enjoyed!
