"Getaway Car" was written and produced by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff. It was recorded by Swift for her sixth studio album, Reputation (2017). The song was engineered by Laura Sisk at Rough Customer Studio (Brooklyn Heights). It was mixed by Serban Ghenea at Mixstar Studios (Virginia Beach, Virginia) and mastered by Randy Merrill at Sterling Sound Studios (New York). "Getaway Car" is a synth-pop song that critics—including Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone—felt reminiscent of the production of Swift's 2014 studio album 1989. Pitchfork's Jamieson Cox said that the song specifically resembles "Out of the Woods", a song on 1989 that was also produced by Swift and Antonoff. The song features pulsing synthesizers, programmed drums, and manipulated vocals. The beginning of the song uses a vocoder for Swift's vocals. The song's lyrics are about Swift's efforts to run away from a relationship to be with someone else, only to realize that this new relationship will also end.
