In addition to the jumpiness and literalness problems, was that supposed to be the "secret place" at 1:11? Because that's a sexual metaphor, not an actual place. I hope you have a better grasp of the lyrics than you do of music videos, but I'm not sure.
im not saying its a bad song, but it was really just a song written and they had no idea what to do for the actual musical part..so they just used like..three chords..max
nothing against you (I'm glad you made this) but I'd just like to see one fan video for this song that doesn't show a fork during the fork lyric and trees during the tree lyric and so on... moment-by-moment literalism gets old
@izauze I understand what you're saying, but when I picture how I would do this, it would all be literal. The first stanza seems like the two kids playing make-believe more than actually talking about tree houses and carrots, but everything else seems to be quite literal, and I would like to see an interpretation of it that actually plays like a movie, with an actual mom actually stabbing a fork into Daddy's shoulder.
and the forks were my favorite part :)

Love the song. Video was pretty lame. Too much flashing around IMO. Good try though.
