Also - it sounds a lot like Dance With Me by Olly Murs.
Dear future husband,ALREADY STOP. The whole assumption of marriage is problematic. For a singer who's biggest audience is pre-teen girls this heteronormative assumption can be damaging
Here's a few thingsVomit. This whole bit puts her on a pedestal and makes her needs more important than his. Because of course, as a man he needs to prove himself to be worthy of such a woman. *rolls eyes*
You'll need to know if you wanna be
My one and only all my life
Take me on a dateTrainor, nobody owes you anything. And flowers get boring surely, let the man get creative with those anniversary gifts.
I deserve a break
And don't forget the flowers every anniversary
'Cause if you'll treat me rightWHAT!? WHEN DID THAT BECOME THE DEFINITION OF A PERFECT WIFE?! There are so many cool things women can do and grocery shopping is not one of them.
I'll be the perfect wife
Buying groceries
Buy-buying what you need
You got that 9 to 5hooray she's a working lady! However, during this bit in the video she's scrubbing the floor while dressed like a characters from a 1950s sitcom.
But, baby, so do I
So don't be thinking I'll be home and baking apple pies
I never learned to cook
But I can write a hook
Sing along with me
Sing-sing along with me (hey)
You gotta know how to treat me like a ladySometimes I'm crazy but hey, I'm your wife therefore be cool about it! Tell me I'm great!
Even when I'm acting crazy
Tell me everything's alright
Dear future husband,His whole life. That's a long time to commit to someone with so many rules.
Here's a few things you'll need to know if you wanna be
My one and only all my life
Dear future husband,
If you wanna get that special lovin'
Tell me I'm beautiful each and every night
??? This is bad. No 'special lovin' until you compliment her, hun.
After every fightOh wait. 'Special lovin' after apologies too. Is she for real?
Just apologize
And maybe then I'll let you try and rock my body right
Even if I was wrongSo much is wrong with this. Therefore, Meghan babes, you're wrong and a liar.
You know I'm never wrong
Why disagree?
Why, why disagree?
Dear future husband,Okay this is weird. Say goodbye to your family Husband because Megs is here to stay and you're having her family too.
Make time for me
Don't leave me lonely
And know we'll never see your family more than mine
I'll be sleeping on the left side of the bed (hey)THIS IS HORRID. You know what she nearly says. I gasp every time. Quit it Trainor. Stop sexualising yourself over the most trivial things.
Open doors for me and you might get some kisses
Don't have a dirty mind
Just be a classy guySo demanding. So. Demanding. Where's the spontaneity?
Buy me a ring
Buy-buy me a ring, babe
Future husband, better love me rightThat sounds like a threat. A nice threat to end an empowering love song. Cute.
