“It was how you grabbed your phone back right out of my hands,” she recalls in the song. “So I read your text, and now I regret it / I can’t get my head round how you’ve been playing tennis / If it was just sex, I wouldn’t be jealous / You won’t play with me and who’s Madeline?”
And when she confronted her love about the information, she says he “came up to the bedroom” and made it all her fault, with her singing“But you moved the goalposts, you’ve broken the rules / I tried to accommodate but you took me for a fool.”
The situation becomes clearer in “Madeline” when Lily speaks with the other woman, who allegedly told her that the affair “has only ever been about sex.” However, the “Not Fair” singer isn’t convinced.
A rage started building in Lily as she calls her husband a “sex addict” living a “double life” in “P––y Palace.” Specifically, she sings about finding a receipt for a purse from NYC’s luxury department store Bergdorf Goodman while she was in London, calling her spouse a “coward” for not telling her the truth.
