The English teacher has got a few things to say about the gym teacher.
Tonight, Taylor Swift released her twelfth studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, and while the title suggests that the record will focus on her life behind the curtain, it should come as no surprise that much of the LP also centers around her relationship with Travis Kelce.
Mere weeks before the release of The Life of a Showgirl, Swift and Kelce announced their engagement with a romantic, floral-filled post (that, in typical Swiftian fashion, was seemingly stuffed with Easter eggs).
Back in 2024, the singer gave a few shoutouts to the Kansas City Chiefs tight end on her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, where she snuck in some football references and romantic metaphors on tracks like "The Alchemy" and "So High School."
But, because The Life of a Showgirl was recorded in between Eras Tour shows, this is the first record where Swift made the entirety of the music while dating Kelce. So, here she finally has the chance to flex her pen and show the world what their relationship is all about.
Up until this point, the public-facing side of their love had consisted mostly of football games and rare date nights (and one podcast appearance, of course). But The Life of a Showgirl offers a peek into their romance like never before.
"Wood" takes the superstition of "knocking on wood" and gives it a cheeky twist, where Swift details her luck in finding Kelce, all while making allusions to Redwood trees, hard rocks, and magic wands (which I don't feel the need to explain). There's even a reference to his New Heights podcast.
Meanwhile, "Wi$h Li$t" continues the theme of magic and good luck, with Swift claiming that she would use a wish to trade all her riches for just a normal life with Kelce: "Got me drеaming about a driveway with a basketball hoop / Boss up, settle down, got a wish list / I just want you."
In "Elizabeth Taylor," Swift prays that her man will turn out to be the one she sticks with her whole life (a likely reference to the fact that Taylor was married eight times). Then, "Honey" might stand as the most romantic track on the album, with Swift reframing all the negative ways in which men have treated her in the past, and being able to see the word "honey" as a term of endearment once again, all thanks to her current beau.
Ahead, listen to all the tracks and see the full lyrics below from The Life of a Showgirl songs that are seemingly about Travis Kelce.
