That brings the grand total to 31 tracks, which of course, fans were excited about. But, that also meant Swifties had serious homework to do—decoding lyrics to unearth exactly what each song is about.

Fans are making guesses about which exes Swift sings out. One X user even compared her to the Mamma Mia character Donna.

We can’t forget to mention how Swift sings about her mother, Andrea, in the track “thanK you aIMee,” which is (maybe, probably?) about her infamous feud with Kim Kardashian.

There may be some digs, but if anybody comes of looking great, it’s Charlie Puth, who gets his own special shoutout in the album’s title track.

There’s nobody Swift fans love more than Swift, so they were happy to hear when she named herself in “Clara Bow.”
