This song is about depression, and comparing it to Fairytale characters.
The girls are sad and lonely because their husbands/boyfriends/etc. aren't paying attention to them.
It shows that even fairy tales have their flaws. No one has a perfect life. There are people now that thought they would have a wonderful relationship, but are just left out and taken advantage of. They wish they had never gotten involed with the other person. ("Would have cut it myself if I knew men would climb hair")
The song tries to help people avoid those circumstances. "The story needs some mending and a better happy ending"
