A weird saying that your southern relative said to you once. People speculate is has the same kind of meaning as: maybe is a strong word, maybe if the starving children had food they wouldn’t starve. But it seems to be said all country-like and it’s strange now.
Relative: Maybe If A Bullfrog Had Wings It Wouldn’t Hit Its Butt When It Jumped.
You: (Visible confusion)
Relative: maybe if a bullfrog had wings it wouldn't hit its butt when it jumped
You: Wtf
Relative: MAYB-
You: STOP
Relative: maybe is a strong word

this confirms that this song is being sung from the perspective of Billie’s abuser. it explains the tone of the song, and completely changes the way you look at it. Lines like “If you find it hard to swallow, I can loosen up your collar, ‘Cause, as long as you’re still breathing, Don’t you even think of leaving” make it very overwhelmingly clear that this is the perspective Billie is portraying

Also, while some people think the Spotify interview thing from the lyric version disproves this, it just doesn’t. She says the song was made to be “insane live”, not a fun song in terms of concept. She said she was going through crazy feelings at the time and you’d understand if you looked at the lyrics, but doesn’t say what the feelings were. On an album where Billie is venting about her trauma, a song like this would have no place in the project. I don’t know how she could have made this more obvious then by saying me and you are both the same
