This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things Lyrics by Taylor Swift Taylor Swift
Below, you will find the lyrics for This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things by Taylor Swift.
It was so nice throwin' big parties
Jump into the pool from the balcony
Everyone swimmin' in a champagne sea
And there are no rules when you show up here
Bass beat rattling the chandelier
Feeling so Gatsby for that whole year
Chorus 1
So why'd you have to rain on my parade?
I'm shaking my head and locking the gates
This is why we can't have nice things, darling
Because you break them, I had to take them away
This is why we can't have nice things, honey
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?
This is why we can't have nice things
Verse 1
It was so nice being friends again
There I was, giving you a second chance
But you stabbed me in the back while shakin' my hand
And therein lies the issue, friends don't try to trick you
Get you on the phone and mind-twist you
And so I took an axe to a mended fence
Chorus 2
But I'm not the only friend you've lost lately
If only you weren't so shady
This is why we can't have nice things, darling
Because you break them, I had to take them away
This is why we can't have nice things honey
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?
This is why we can't have
Bridge
Here's a toast to my real friends
They don't care about the he-said, she-said
And here's to my baby
He ain't readin' what they call me lately
And here's to my mama
Had to listen to all this drama
And here's to you
'Cause forgiveness is a nice thing to do
I can't even say it with a straight face
Chorus 3
This is why we can't have nice things, darling
Because you break them, I had to take them away
This is why we can't have nice things no), honey honey (Baby
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?
This is why we can't have nice no) things, darling
And here's to my real friends
Chorus 3
Because you break them, I had to take them
And here's to my baby
Chorus 3
Nice things honey
They didn't care about that he-said, she-said
Chorus 3
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?
This is why we can't have nice things
