Taylor Swift Teases Possible First Lyrics From New Album originally appeared on Parade.
Singer Taylor Swift just sent all of her fans into a tailspin as she made the big reveal that her upcoming 12th album is coming soon and it’s called The Life of a Showgirl.
But amid all of the crazy excitement about the announcement, the singer subtly teased fans with some Easter eggs in a new playlist on Spotify, including what could likely be the first official lyrics from the album.
Swift’s Spotify account shared a new playlist featuring one of the official new logos in green and orange, but it was the title that really intrigued fans, as it was called, “And, baby, that’s show business for you ❤️🔥.” The playlist was shared with fans on Spotify billboards in New York City and Nashville, adding to the significance.

As fans have never heard this phrase from the singer before, and it perfectly fits the new theming, many felt like it had to be a tease for The Life of a Showgirl.
The playlist also had a peculiar combination of Swift’s songs, with 22 songs that she worked on with both Max Martin and Shellback. A few hits included were “Blank Space,” “I Did Something Bad,” “Shake It Off” and “Style.”
