John Mayer made a shocking confession about one of his songs — on the same weekend Taylor Swift‘s breakup news went public. Hmm…

“Paper Doll” at a concert at the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California, on April 8, where he looked back on the song he allegedly penned about ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift.According to a video that has been making the rounds on social media, Mayer said as he played the guitar: “I wonder if people don’t like it because it sounds a little pissed off.”“I don’t really like ‘pissed off’ as a song,” he continued, adding that “there’s something about it that’s a little bitchy.”He further went on to describe how he makes an effort “not to give bitchiness” in his songs.However, the Connecticut native confessed that it does happen “sometimes,” deeming “Paper Doll” as having some “sarcastic bitch” feelings. “I guess it is sort of a little bit blah,” he said onstage.Rumors have swirled for about a decade, saying that the tune is a response to Swift’s 2010 hit “Dear John.”The “Look What You Made Me Do” songstress and Mayer dated in 2009 and it has been alleged that “Dear John” was inspired by him.There have been some comparisons between the lyrics of both songs.
