Key Grammar Structures

• So I let you get away with murder baby

  ➔ Causative verb + bare infinitive (let)

  ➔ The verb "let" is a causative verb that is followed directly by the bare infinitive "get".

• I was so sure I could save you

  ➔ Modal verb + infinitive (could save)

  ➔ "could" is a past‑tense modal verb that is followed by the infinitive "save".

• But now I can't remember why I tried to

  ➔ Negative contraction + verb + infinitive (can't remember) + indirect question (why I tried)

  ➔ "can't" is the contraction of "cannot". The verb "remember" takes the infinitive "to" (omitted here) and the clause "why I tried" is an indirect question.

• All of my friends say "I told you so"

  ➔ Reporting verb + quoted speech

  ➔ The verb "say" introduces direct speech, which is placed in quotation marks.

• So I took all your words put 'em into art

  ➔ Phrasal verb + preposition (put into)

  ➔ "put ... into" is a phrasal verb meaning "to place something inside"; here "'em" is a contraction of "them".

• Wonder wonder wonder if you always knew I'd be better

  ➔ Second conditional (if + past simple, would + base verb)

  ➔ "if you always knew I'd be better" uses a past‑simple verb in the if‑clause to talk about an unreal present situation, and "I'd" = "I would" in the result clause.

• I know that you're scared you don't know the when or the where to go

  ➔ Noun clause with "that" + indirect question (the when, the where)

  ➔ "that" introduces a noun clause "you're scared you don't know the when or the where to go"; "the when" and "the where" function as nominalised interrogatives.

• Loosen that grip, girl, deal with it
