The Summer I Turned Petty Lyrics
I signed you up for Scientology
Changed your wifi name so all your neighbors see
Now it's perfect, thirsty dirt bag in apartment 202
So everyone who lives there knows the truth
I'm not the kind to key my name into your car
But I'll tell the internet you're not faithful
Is it hard for you to sleep at night with dudes calling you left and right?
'Cause I told 'em your number at the bar
I ain't gonna cry about it
I ain't gonna lose my mind
But I can't say I'm the same girl that I was, living
Used to be free, now it's time to meet the other side
And just coming, boy, I hope you're ready
For the summer I turned petty
I can't lie and say I wasn't kind of proud
That I wiped the data from your PlayStation account
Filled your shampoo up with glitter
Sparkle on your river if you left around and now you're fighting now
I ain't gonna cry about it
I ain't gonna lose my mind
But I can't say I'm the same girl that I was, living
Used to be, now it's time to meet the other side
I'mma hit you up for the time I spend
I ain't gonna cry about it
I ain't gonna lose my mind
But I can't say I'm the same girl
I would used to be, now it's time to meet the other side
I hope you're ready for the summer I turned petty
About This Song
In "The Summer I Turned Petty" Jenna Davis offers listeners an anthem to break up in pop / country pop style, where a woman does not want to feel powerless due to the feeling of heartbreak and, instead of tears, uses humor and petty actions against her ex. For instance, she changes his Wi-Fi, wipes PlayStation data, signs him up for unwanted services, and gives his phone number out. These actions cannot be considered serious attempts to harm him; this is just the singer's way of showing her anger and unwillingness to be good after the betrayal.
The reason why this song touches people emotionally is that despite the fact that it is filled with jokes and sarcasm, there is the real story of betrayal and recovering from it inside it. Indeed, the singer recognizes that her experience made her change and showed her a part of herself which she never knew before. She realizes that her actions are helpless because she cannot fix the situation but they bring her self-confidence.
