Carrie Underwood

Another song that Carrie Underwood did was “Before He Cheats” This song is based on a guy cheating on this girl with a blonde. She also is talking about how she is dismantling the guy’s truck. In this song there are a few poetic devices such as, assonance. This is shown in the lines of a Bleached-blonde tramp. (Reputation of vowel sounds) The next poetic device is imagery because you can really picture Carrie Underwood dismantling her boyfriend’s truck because he cheated on her. This is in the chorus stanza. This is a narrative song because it tells the story about a guy cheating on a girl and it’s from the girl’s prospective point of view. In this song the theme of heartbroken and cheating is still continuing.
