It's not "obvious" that it wasn't meant to be taken seriously. Like... that just doesn't come across to me in the song itself, and I think the same is true for many listeners. It sounds like it's straightface. In the same way that Blank Space, for instance, didn't sound entirely straight-faced.

It's plausible that she didn't mean it seriously - it's actually highly plausible just because it's extremely unlikely that any adult could possibly mean it seriously. But that doesn't change the fact that to me, and to a lot of other people, the "The old Taylor can't come to the phone right now" bit comes across as serious, even though all logic and good sense would dictate that it could not possibly be serious, even with all the good will in the world towards Swift.

People heard the whole "she can't come to the phone, she's dead" bit and thought it was serious? How?
