* SillyLoveSongs - Subverted with "Love Song".
* SirSwearsALot - Has an adorable potty mouth.
* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism - "Love Song" and "King of Anything" are quite cynical. While on the other hand, "Brave" is very idealistic.
* SophisticatedAsHell - "Sweet As Whole" jolts between sweet/poetic and blunt/vulgar.
* StealthPun - Considering "Sweet as Whole" isn't uttered in the song and it's essentially a PrecisionFStrike... Just read the title slowly.
* StepfordSnarker - The bridge section of "King of Anything" reveals Sara (or whoever is singing the song at the time) to be one, lamenting her ExtremeDoormat attitude. Even earlier, "So many things I'd say if only I was able" hints at this.
* TheSwearJar - In the interim talking on her "Live from [=SoHo=]" iTunes EP, she mentions that she often doesn't get paid when she plays at universities because of her cursing.
* TakeThat - "Machine Gun" was written to her critics.

Added DiffLines:

* ForcedCreativity: A downplayed example with her hit 2007 single "Love Song", a cheeky TakeThat to the executives of her label. According to her, though she kept writing new music, they rejected every song and pressured her to write more radio-friendly music. "Love Song" was what came of it: a radio-friendly AntiLoveSong.
