Taylor Swift’s 12th studio album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” is packed with tongue-in-cheek surprises, but one track in particular has everyone talking! “Wood” is filled with double meanings and a wink toward her fiancé, Travis Kelce, which Taylor Swift herself said started in a very innocent place.”
Fast-forward to now, Travis Kelce finally reacted to the buzz around the song’s sexy lyrics on the October episode of his New Heights podcast. The track has eyebrow-raising lines like “New Heights (New Heights) of manhood (manhood),” and “His love was the key that opened my thighs.” To this, the NFL tight end responded, saying, “It’s a great song. I love that girl… any song that she would reference me in that way.” His brother Jason couldn’t resist teasing him, hinting that the lyrics about “new heights of manhood” might have been a little too on the nose.
Meanwhile, Taylor Swift told Jimmy Fallon that “Wood” was originally inspired by old superstitions, not double-innuendos. “It really started out in a very innocent place,” she said. “Then we started vibing, and I don’t know how we got here, but I love the song.” The song quickly became one of the most talked-about moments, proving that Taylor Swift is all about adding a little spice to her songwriting.
