Swift’s swip at Alonso
Here are the lyrics thought to be referencing Fernando Alonso in full:
Small talk, big walk, act like I don’t care what you did

Then ran and hid.
And I’ll tell you one thing, honey.
I can take the upper hand and touch your body.
Flip the script and leave you like a dumb house party
Or I might just love you ’til the end (Ah-ah-ah)
