The post-chorus seems to be Swift describing herself as a "death trap" for those who doublecross or try to use her. Ra-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta, death trap She goes so far as to say that it was the "most fun I ever had / And I'd do it over and over and over again if I could." While she's not clear about what exactly this action was, she's happy that she took it. When she uses someone who has hurt her, the world claims she "did something bad," but she wonders why "it feel so good."
