0.00 - 0.05 LYRICS: Whistling! solid black fade into Putting gloves taking a pie out of the oven Mayberry Eve - 1950s indication
0.05 - 0.09 {VERSE 1} Could dress up to get love + But Guess What
In1950s styled living room Mayberry Eve looking at picture of Elvis Presley (Adds Intertextuality which is nice as Elvis Presley started to become successful during this time)
- pulls a silly face at him
0.09 - 0.16 I'm never gonna be that girl. Who's living in a Barbie world Bedroom getting ready not knowing which dresses to choose from between a pink or blue one. Then drops them on the floor and rolls eyes at the camera
0.16 - 0.26
Could wake up in make up and play dumb + Pretending that I
need a boy. Who's gonna treat me like a toy
Putting on makeup in the mirror - the right classified 1950s makeup then messing this up
0.26 - 0.30
{PRE - CHORUS} I know the other girlies wanna wear expensive
things + Like Diamond rings
Fake gold jellwery and tearing them up into bits and pieces and stamping on them in the 1950s dress
0.30 - 0.35 But I don't wanna be the puppet that your playing on a string Ironing clothes and deliberatly burning the clothes from staring at the camera too long
0.35 - 0.37 This queen don't need a king
Cooking in the kitchen and has made like a crown shaped with bits and pieces on her head with tissue paper and glue with the pie eaten by children
0.37 - 0.39
{Chorus} Oh, I don't know what you've been told In a children nursery thing and pointing to list of rules of what it takes to be a good 1950s housewife then crossing this out
0.39 - 0.40 But this gal Her dressed as a little girl in a uniform based thing tearing and ripping up the dress and messing her hair up in the bathroom
0.40 - 0.42 right here's gonna rule the world Watching husband counting money out
0.42 - 0.42 Yeah Thumbs up at the camera while sitting on a couch and paint spilt all over it
0.42 - 0.43 That is where I'm gonna be In Garden and cuts a perfectly rose off
0.43 - 0.45 Because I wanna be Making a feast for family
0.45 - 0.45 No Then eating it before they get home
0.45 - 0.46 I don't wanna be Cake all over face and they walk in and smiles pretending nothing has happened
0.46 - 0.47 Sit Still, Look Pretty Cut back to the bedroom and this looks so ridiculous
0.47 - 0.49 You get off on your 9 to 5 Counting money but closer in
0.49 - 0.50 Dream of thinking about picket fences sequence
0.50 - 0.51 Picket Fences and Having a little tea party by the fence and throwing the little ceramics at the fence causing them to smash and shatter all over the perfectly mowed grass on the floor
0.51 - 0.52
Trophy wives Putting a book on a shelf in study and then just before shows audience. Says something like 'how to dye your hair wrong' for husband to find
0.52 - 0.55 But no, I'm never gonna be 'cause I don't wanna be Picture of him screaming with dyed hair and attatches to a retro styled fridge
0.55 - 0.56 No Instead of polishing chair just sitting in there eating cake getting it absolutely everywhere
0.56 - 0.56 I don't wanna Using bright pink nail polish to write I don't wanna
0.56 - 0.58 Sit Still, Look Pretty sit still look pretty on the mirror

1.06 - 1.07 for one night timer for 3 seconds with hayes code rule
1.07 - 1.09 But then he wanna take Mayberry goes 1 second longer
1.09 - 1.10 control timer goes off and looks at camera with overload amount of lipstick on
1.10 - 1.11 And I would rather fly Knitting from a patterned dress gritting her teeth trying to break the guide
11.11 - 1.13 solo Just ends up being an air guitar and her playing it
1.13 - 1.15 That snow white spik and span version of the drawing room with 'rules'
1.15 - 1.16 she did right Has broom in one hand once removes image and the drawing room is in a total mess
1.16 - 1.18 in her life Looks back at broom in one hand
1.18 - 1.18 Had then duster appears in other and looks there
1.18 - 1.18 7 men Suddenly out of the blue a surface cleaner appears
1.18 - 1.20 to do the Then a sponge, then a hoover and so on
1.20 - 1.21 chores Looks at all these things - looks at camera and then drops items
1.21 - 1.21 Cause that's not what a puts index figure up towards camera
1.21 - 1.23 lady's for Finger shaking motion from left to right to left to right continously until next line
1.23 - 1.25 {Pre-chorus} The only thing Taking kids to school all dressed up in 1950s style dress to go outside in

1.27 - 1.28 captivity Sing through the gate
1.28 - 1.30 And I might love me some vanilla On way back home seeing all these people working - Seeing a builder - potentially doing hardwork - just smiles at each other
1.30 - 1.33 But I'm not that sugar sweet All of a sudden Mayberry Eve is in a high vis jacket on top of her 1950s dress singing to the camera - walked through to see 2023 subtle indication

3.20 - 3.20 Pretty Last final shot shows ballet her singing
3.20 - 3.22 Pretty, Pretty echo
Mayberry Eve surving at the dinner table like nothing happens
3.22 all the way
through to end
which may lead to
3.29 Last pretty echo
Then we see her walking to work then fade into solid black
