Music video



Directed by Steven Goldmann, the video starts off in a mobile trailer in the desert. It shows Kathy confronting her lazy boyfriend (who is sitting watching TV, obviously not caring and staring into space). She is outraged, and goes to extremes to confront her emotions and teach him a lesson. She lights the trailer on fire, takes his car and all his belongings to sell off to others, and (after finding him in the trunk of the car) ties him up so he can't break free. Shots of her singing the song in a black jacket and long black hair near the car are also shown. It was filmed in Arizona's Painted Desert.
