Why would doritos be in the bay? 

 

Do y'all not read the lyrics and wonder why your interpretations don't make sense?

btw I was today years old when I found out John Deere is a fucking TRACTOR lmao. and not a Norman Rockwell-y person or some lol 

Yes  I'm stupid, yes.

There's a picture on the wall of me on a John Deere, Jenny handed me a beer, said, "How the hell did you get there?" 
 

You thought John was a guy and she had a picture where she was sitting on him? And Jenny asking how she managed to do that?

Imagine Lana sitting on a deer while doritos are swimming in the bay  

No wonder some of y'all didn't like this song when it dropped

Why are people dragging Arcadia? I agree it's not her best song lyrically/vocally, but it has one of the most beautiful melodies... lowkey upset now

I am stuck in 2012 when all I had to worry about was Marilyn, Jesus and Elvis

I was not ready for tractor, farming and chicken references in 2021

I think that's already a thread

But why would a chicken NOT be running bare feet? Do chickens wear shoes now.  sometimes she just throws lines in there for no reason
