2008年喬·喬納斯見異思遷追求女演員卡米拉·貝勒，並在電話中以創紀錄27秒的時間就把斯威夫特甩了。後來被她寫進《Forever & Always》中，“現在我終於明白你只是說說而已”。Joe Jonas寫了一首《Much Better》（你更好）來回嗆斯威夫特，指出卡米拉是自己更好的情人，因此斯威夫特把炮火對準那位橫刀奪愛的女演員，也在題目和歌詞中用了"Better"這個詞——“Come on, show me how much better you are (讓我看看你比我更好在哪兒)”。《Better Than Revenge》中寫道：“她不是聖人，她不是你認為的那樣完美，她只是一個演員，她在床墊上的那些事讓她變得有名。”

Now go stand in the corner and think about what you did. 立刻去站在一個沒有人的角落，好好想一想你都做了些什麼 Ha!Time for a little revenge. 是時候該施行一些小報復了 The story starts when it was hot and it was summer end. 我們的故事開始於 那年夏天結束的時候 I had it all, I had him right there where I wanted him. 曾經，我擁有一切，我擁有夢寐以求的他 She came along got him along and let's hear the applause. 她就這樣闖入了我們的世界，帶走了他。讓我們來聽聽那些響起的掌聲吧 She took him faster than you can say sabotage. 她帶走他的速度比你說完“Sabotage”(分手)還快 I never saw it coming, wouldn‘t have suspected it. 我不曾懷疑，也不曾料想到事情會這樣發生 I underestimated just who I was dealing with. 我實在是低估了這個我正在對付的人 She had to know the pain was beating on me like a drum. 她應該知道她帶來的傷痛，就像把我當成鼓一般的瘋狂敲擊 She underestimated just who she was stealing from. 她也低估了她正在從誰那裡把他偷走 She's not a saint and she's not what you think. 她不是聖人，她絕對不是你想像的那樣完美 She's an actress. Whoa. 她只是一個演員， 喔 She's better known for the things that she does on the mattress.

Whoa. 她只是一個演員，喔 She's better known for the things that she does on the mattress.

Whoa… 你也許能夠擁有他，但是我總是會笑到最後 She's not a saint and she's not what you think. 她不是聖人，她絕對不是你想像的那樣完美 She's an actress. Whoa. 她只是一個演員，喔 She's better known for the things that she does on the mattress.
