Annotationen
Eine moderne Mörderballade, die fiktive Geschichte von Untreue und zwei perfekten Morden. Die Ich-Erzählerin hat eine Freundin, die Este heisst - wie Este Haim die als Featuring-Artist hier mitsingt.
Die Erzählerin trifft sich regelmässig mit ihrer Freundin Este, die ihr gegenüber äussert, dass ihr Mann eine Affäre mit einer anderen Frau hat. Sie sieht Hinweise aber kann es ihm nicht beweisen.
Dann verschwindet Este und die Affäre zieht bei deren Mann ein. Die Erzählerin nimmt an, dass er Este getötet hat, aber kann es nicht beweisen, weil es keine Leiche gibt. No body, no crime, so lautet der Songtitel.
Im dritten Verse bringt die Erzählerin den Mann von Este um (oder plant es). Sie hat ein Boot und versenkt die Leiche in einem Gewässer. Sie verwischt alle Spuren, denn sie ist eine professionelle Reinigungskraft. Die Schwester von Este gibt ihr ein Alibi. Und die Affäre macht sich deshalb verdächtig, weil sie die Lebensversicherung erhöht hat. «No body no crime» - zum dritten Mal, ein Revanche-Mord an einem Mann, ausgeübt von verbündeten Frauen.

Lyrics
[Intro: HAIM] He did it He did it [Verse 1: Taylor Swift] Este's a friend of mine We meet up every Tuesday night for dinner and a glass of wine Este's been losin' sleep Her husband's actin' different, and it smells like infidelity She says, "That ain't my Merlot on his mouth That ain't my jewelry on our joint account" No, there ain't no doubt I think I'm gonna call him out [Chorus: Taylor Swift & HAIM] She says, "I think he did it, but I just can't prove it" I think he did it, but I just can't prove it I think he did it, but I just can't prove it No, no body, no crime But I ain't lettin' up until the day I die [Post-Chorus: HAIM] No, no I think he did it No, no He did it [Verse 2: Taylor Swift] Este wasn't there Tuesday night at Olive Gardеn At her job or anywhere Hе reports his missing wife And I noticed when I passed his house His truck has got some brand new tires And his mistress moved in Sleeps in Este's bed and everything No, there ain't no doubt Somebody's gotta catch him out, 'cause [Chorus: Taylor Swift & HAIM] I think he did it, but I just can't prove it (He did it) I think he did it, but I just can't prove it (He did it) I think he did it, but I just can't prove it No, no body, no crime But I ain't lettin' up until the day I die [Post-Chorus: HAIM & Taylor Swift] No, no I think he did it No, no He did it [Verse 3: Taylor Swift & Danielle Haim] Good thing my daddy made me get a boating license when I was fifteen And I've cleaned enough houses to know how to cover up a scene Good thing Este's sister's gonna swear she was with me (She was with me, dude) Good thing his mistress took out a big life insurance policy [Chorus: Taylor Swift] They think she did it, but they just can't prove it They think she did it, but they just can't prove it She thinks I did it, but she just can't prove it [Outro: Taylor Swift & HAIM] No, no body, no crime I wasn't lettin' up until the day he— No, no body, no crime I wasn't lettin' up until the day he— No, no body, no crime I wasn't lettin' up until the day he died
