This song is Swift's response to the negative reputation the media has given her.
"I can make the bad guys good for a weekend" - the bad guys are the paparazzi to Swift, but are good to the "player" since association with Swift immediately gives publicity. Any publicity is good publicity and Swift knows this.
"You can tell me when it's over" - the tabloids rumor relationships are over before the couple announces it officially.
With this song Swift is portraying the way she is portrayed by the media.
It is a sarcastic jab at how she views herself and how her "ex-lovers" only wanted to be with her to increase their fame.
I applaud the brilliance in writing about how you always write about relationships.
It is expected so Swift is giving the media what they want and profiting off the attention.
I'm gonna do all the thing for you
A girl wants a man to do
Oh, baby (Oh, baby)
I'll sacrifice for you
I'll even do wrong for you
Oh, baby (Oh, baby)
Every minute, every hour
I'm gonna shower you
With love and affection
Look out, it's comin' in your direction
And I'm
I'm gonna make you love me
Oh, yes I will
Yes I will
I'm gonna make you love me
Oh, yes I will
Yes I will
Look here
My love is strong, you see
I know you'll never get tired of me
Oh, baby (Oh, baby)
And I'm gonna use every trick in the book
I'll try my best to get you hooked
Hey, baby (Hey, baby)
And every night, every day
I'm gonna say
I'm gonna get you, I'm gonna get you
Look out boy, 'cause I'm gonna get you
I'm gonna make you love me
Oh, yes I will
Yes I will
And I'm gonna make you love me
Oh, yes I will
You know I will
Every breathe I take
And each and every step I make
Brings me closer, baby
Closer to you
And with each beat of my heart
For every day we're apart
I'll hunger for every wasted hour
And I
Every night
And every day
I'm gonna get you, I'm gonna get you
Look out, 'cause I'm gonna get you
I'm gonna make, I'm gonna make you love me
Oh
I'm gonna make you love me
Oh, yes I will
Yes I will
Yes I will
I'm gonna make you love me
Yes I will, yes I will
I'm gonna make you love me
Yes I will
Yes I will
A girl wants a man to do

Look out, it's comin' in your direction
And I'm
