"In Carpenter's song, describing the many duties and demands of a seemingly perfect wife, the phrase is first seems to be intended to echo the sentiments of the Geritol spot, but when the woman throws her husband out of the house during the third verse of the song, it become apparent that Carpenter intended the phrase to be taken literally ("he thinks he'll keep her")." I don't understand this section; it seems rather confusingly worded, so I added the confusing tag. TenPoundHammer 21:45, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
