《Before He Cheats》歌中故事寫的是
女孩發現了男朋友背著自己偷吃
和其他女孩私約去酒吧、並意圖不軌
不過從歌詞看起來
去酒吧的情節比較像是推測/想像?
但不管如何，畢竟是歌嘛需要戲劇張力
這位怒火中燒的女漢子，就帶上裝備
(棒球棍、小刀、螺絲起子等)
前去和男朋友的愛車
轟轟烈烈地來一場硬的!
車身、皮椅、車頭燈、輪胎等
無一倖免 (車子是無辜的阿 😭 😭 )
反正就是要給男朋友一點顏色瞧瞧
看他下次還敢不敢偷吃 🥹

some fruity little drink

文末小記
遇到會偷吃的人就是得趕緊跑呀!
別還在那邊猶豫不絕
留不留、走不走的
衝刺起來阿 🏃♀️➡️ 🏃♀️➡️ 🏃♀️➡️
不過我在這裡還是要強調一下
我們趕快跑走就完事了
破壞阿、挾怨報復阿什麼的
這種暴力行為是絕對不建議的喔 😆 😆
