2. Synopsis
The synopsis of my music video will be about a husband and wife. The wife keeps nagging and shouting at her husband and he just stands there taking it.(the lyrics of the song match what the husband is thinking). the husband has a line in the song and when he says it the wife becomes happier. In the end the husband gets fed up with her moaning at him so he starts shouting at his wife, the wife then says the same line that he says to her which makes him laugh and makes him realise that hes just overreacting.

10. Annotated lyrics Well now then Mardy Bum I've seen your frown
And it's like looking down the barrel of a gun
And it goes off
And out come all these words
Oh there's a very pleasant side to you
A side I much prefer
Chorus
It's one that laughs and jokes around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's right hard to remember
That on a day like today when you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on
Oh I'm in trouble again, aren't I?
I thought as much
Cause you turned over there
Pulling that silent disappointment face
The one that I can't bear
And yeah I'm sorry I was late
But I missed the train
And then the traffic was a state
And I can't be arsed to carry on in this debate that reoccurs,
Oh, when you say I don't care
But of course I do, yeah, I clearly do!

His girl is unpredictable and she goes off like a gun sometimes, holding nothing back. Without thinking, he says how much he prefers her when she’s happy. The gun goes off and then the words come out. The gun is the girl holding her rage and then it goes off as she can’t hold it any longer, making her say things she doesn’t really mean to say

Here he’s trying to get this girl to remember all the good times they’ve had together. But It’s hard to remember all of the good times you have with a person when they’re being particularly nasty toward you.

A rhetorical question that shows he knows her moods well by now. He’s not phased by them anymore. He knows her so well, that he just knows when something is wrong with his girl friend. She’s giving him the silent treatment but it’s no mystery as to what’s on her mind.
