We’re in a Hallmark movie. I work at a hardware store. She’s out of my league, she’s a princess,” Fallon told his Tonight Show audience of the tune back in October. “She’s coming to the town to save my hardware store. And then, at the end of the song, she reaches for a knife, and I realize that we’re not in a Hallmark movie — we’re in a Lifetime movie. Same plot, just a little violence at the end.”
