"I DID SOMETHING BAD" Song Meaning
Time for the Grudge Song. In “I Did Something Bad,” Swift takes down the people who stirred up drama for her in 2016 with some pretty direct references.
The beginning of the song is about a certain “narcissist” — likely to be Kanye West. She sings, “If a man talks shit, then I owe him nothing / I don’t regret it one bit, ‘cause he had it coming.” West rapped about Swift in “Famous” (or “talked shit”), and now it’s her turn to sing about him.
Next up is the “playboy” verse, which is likely referencing Tom Hiddleston. She sings, “So I fly 'em all around the world / And I let them think they saved me.” Over the few months they were a couple, Swift and Hiddleston visited Rhode Island, Rome, Australia, and the U.K. She also says, “You gotta leave before you get left,” and as the rumor goes, she left first.
Calvin Harris comes up when Swift sings, “But if he drops my name, then I owe him nothing / and if he spends my change, then he had it coming.” Apparently, Swift had written Harris' song, “This Is What You Came For,” under the pen name Nils Sjoberg. Harris took credit for Swift’s work. He "spent her change."
Finally, a small Kim Kardashian West Dig. Swift knows people are coming after her with “receipts and reasons” — a call-out to Kardashian West’s posting the phone call between Swift and West on Snapchat
