Libraries Are Fun
An Artificial Educational Film

[music video opens with a young female librarian (red-head with thick glasses) approaches the library]

Any ladies
Any ladies
Any ladies from outta town

[she touches the "Library Monitor" pin on her lapel, then enters the library]
[cut to the librarian sitting at the front desk, doing various tasks (fixing her date stamp, answering a reference question on the telephone), when several well-dressed ladies enter the library]

Any ladies
Any ladies
Any ladies

[the ladies start browsing the stacks, then begin asking the librarian questions (which seems to leave her a bit flustered)]

Where you from, darling?
Where you from, darling?

[the librarian suddenly stops, as if she hears something unsettling, but she eventually resumes her duties - reshelving books, pushing a bookcart, etc. - as the ladies begin dancing through the stacks]

Any ladies?
Any ladies?

[everyone suddenly stops as two young women (wearing outrageous 80s-style clothes) appear]
GIRLS: We're from Perth!
[the librarian forces a weak smile, obviously nervous about their presence in her library]
GIRLS: We're from Perth!

Where you from, darling?
