Listen to the lyrics of the song.

Complete the gaps with the correct verbs, paying attention to the tense.

In the music video, Dido has not paid her bills, and the government comes to tear down her house. The police put an eviction notice on her door and movers start moving her belongings out. Dido, who seems oblivious to the fact that her house has been barricaded, is seen simply singing the song.

During the first chorus of the song, Dido has a cup of tea whilst moving, movers pile her belongings by an outside wall, and a mover steps on flowers in her front yard. In the end, she is escorted out of her home, her home is torn down, she leaves behind most of her belongings, and walks away with her shoulder bag and umbrella.[11]

The end of the video implies that her house is actually being torn down for redevelopment, as her home is sandwiched between two large skyscrapers.

Thank You - Dido
