"I'm just as clever, it's not technically cheating if I didn't really mean it"
I wonder if that means she cheated too?
I think, and I'm not sure, but I THINK she's just saying that to make a point, to show him that it goes both ways, that she can cheat too and do the same thing to him. Does that make sense? Not really, I know, lol, but it's the best I can do.
Yeah, I think you make sense, beautyofspeed. I think you're saying that she's trying to tell him that if she did the same thing he did, it would still be wrong. Like, let's say, she found out he cheated and she confronts him about it. But he argues back that he didn't have any feelings for the woman he cheated with (he "didn't really mean it") and so what he did shouldn't count as cheating. But then Vanessa's like, "Well, okay, great, now I can have an affair with someone as long as there are no feelings attached. Fair?"
Is that what you were saying? Lol.
I initially was thinking that too BUT, upon further inspection of the lyrics (lol), I think she is saying that she DID cheat. Why? Because of the word
didn't in that line. It's past tense, and implies (I think) that it already happened. If she hadn't cheated, but was just just trying to make a point about cheating, she would have instead said "it's not technically cheating if I
don't really mean it."
Does that make sense?
