“Picture to Burn” is an angsty breakup song about Jordan Alford, who went on to date, and later marry, one of Taylor’s former friends named Chelsea. Chelsea told Daily Mail: [Jordan and I] just thought it was funny. [Jordan] was like, ‘I’m not a redneck! She makes me look like some redneck!’ but other than that we just thought it was kind of funny. […] [After I began dating him, Taylor and I] exchanged a few words over a locker fight.

Picture To Burn lyrics

State the obvious, I didn't get my perfect fantasy
I realise you love yourself more than you could ever love me
So go and tell your friends that I'm obsessive and crazy
That's fine, I'll tell mine you're gay
By the way
I hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You're a redneck heartbreaker
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I'm concerned you're
Just another picture to burn
There's no time for tears
I'm just sitting here planning my revenge
There's nothing stopping me
From going out with all of your best friends
And if you come around saying sorry to me
My daddy's gonna show you how sorry you'll be
'Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You're a redneck heartbreaker
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I'm concerned you're
Just another picture to burn
And if you're missing me
You'd better keep it to yourself
'Cause coming back around here
Would be bad for your health
'Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You're a redneck heartbreaker
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
In case you haven't heard
I really, really hate that
Stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You're a redneck heartbreaker
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I'm concerned you're
Just another picture to burn
Burn, burn, burn, baby, burn
You're just another picture to burn
Baby, burn
