Analysis of Repetition #2

“Before He Cheats” by: Carrie Underwood

There is a use of Anaphora is shown throughout the song “Before He Cheats” by Carrie Underwood. When she sings, “Right now, he's probably slow dancing with a bleach blonde tramp, and she's probably getting frisky. Right now, he's probably buying her some fruity little drink 'cause she can't shoot whiskey. Right now, he's probably up behind her with a pool stick showing her how to shoot a combo” she uses this form of repetition to show her frustration. She also uses it in the second verse to prove the same point; her frustration with him. The repetition shows just how much the fact of his cheating makes her mad. The repetition therefore adds to or enhances the song and helps her prove her point.
