Modern day boredom is now letting ChatGPT run rampant on any subject of your choosing, whether I like it or not.
Today, I started with prompting the AI language model to write us the opposite of “Love Story” by Taylor Swift. I’m pretty pleased with the result, actually. Pleased enough that I think I’m going to start a new series. I’ll probably call it Opposite Lyrics by ChatGPT. Consider this volume 1 but I’m also not committing to that yet…
“Love Story” by Taylor Swift Breakup Story by ChatGPT:
We were both old when I first saw you / I opened my eyes and the present began
I’m sitting here, In a quiet room with winter air
No lights, no party, no fancy attire / I see you pass by without a desire
And say, “Goodbye”, Little did I know
That you were nobody, you were ignoring me / And my daddy said, “Stay away from Romeo”
And I was smiling without a care, Telling you, “Please just go,” and I said
Romeo, leave me nowhere we can be alone, I won’t be waiting, nothing to do but shun
You won’t be the prince, I won’t be the princess / It’s not a love story, baby, just say, “No”
So I stay indoors, never seeking you / We make noise, ’cause we’re alive as they knew
Open your eyes, Embrace this town for every while, oh oh
‘Cause you were nobody, I was nobody better / And my daddy said, “Stay away from Romeo”
But you meant nothing to me, I was begging you, “Please just go,” and I said
Romeo, leave me nowhere we can be alone / I won’t be waiting, nothing to do but shun
You won’t be the prince, I won’t be the princess, It’s not a love story, baby, just say, “No”
Romeo, confuse me, they’re trying to tell me how to feel / This love is simple, but it’s not real
Don’t be afraid, let’s escape this foolishness / It’s not a love story, baby, just say, “No”
I got tired of waiting, Wondering if you were ever leaving town
My faith in you was restored when I saw you far away, never to be found, and I said
Romeo, leave me, I’ve been feeling so whole / I stopped waiting for you, and you never showed
Is this in my head? I don’t care what to think, you stood up and walked away with a wink
And said, “Forget me, Juliet, you’ll always have to be alone / I don’t love you, that’s all I really know
I didn’t talk to your dad, forget the white dress / It’s not a love story, baby, just say, “No”
‘Cause we were both old when I first saw you….
