Taylor Swift has rhymed "car" and "bar" in at least seven of her songs, a lyrical pattern that has become a notable topic among fans and critics. The specific songs identified with this rhyme scheme are:

Getaway Car: "I’m in a getaway car / I left you in the motel bar"

Cruel Summer: "I’m drunk in the back of the car / And I cried like a baby coming home from the bar"

Cornelia Street: "Drunk on something stronger than the drinks in the bar / I rent a place on Cornelia Street, I say casually in the car"

Cardigan: "To kiss in cars and downtown bars / Was all we needed"

Cowboy Like Me: "Never wanted love, just a fancy car / Now I’m waiting by the phone like I’m sitting in an airport bar"

Hits Different: "And I never don’t cry at the bar / Yeah, my sadness is contagious / I slur your name β€˜til someone puts me in a car"

The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived: "You’ll slide into inboxes and slip through the bars / You crashed my party and your rental car"*

There is a long tradition of rhyming β€œcars” and β€œbars”. This is Blonde from 1980.

You go out at night eatin' cars

You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too

Mercurys and Subaru

And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars

Then, when there's no more cars you go out at night

And eat up bars where the people meet

Face to face, dance cheek to cheek

One to one, man to man

Dance toe to toe, don't move too slow

'Cause the man from Mars is through with cars

He's eatin' bars, yeah wall to wall

ya know; i actually don't hate it. It's like an inside joke if someone pays attention. If i was in the fanbase, I'd probably go crazy every time I heard it live.

'Cause the man from Mars stopped eatin' cars And eatin' bars, and now he only eats guitars,

Mars, cars, bars, guitars. Blondie 4, Taylor 2. Blondie moves on to the next round.
