I can't tell if this song is ironic or not- is she still in love with him, and she's listing the things she'll miss out on since he's left? Or are darning his socks, etc, things she actually realized she doesn't want to do?
Maybe it's a bit of both. Because of the lyrics, the singer could preform it either way. But let's talk about Nina's performance.

In Nina's performance, she does seem upset. So I can assume that this is the sort of thing that deep down she is longing for. I think she broke up with her boyfriend because she knew he was going to leave her for the the other woman, and wanted to break up with him first to preserve her ego.

We can take what you say and view it both ways. What if the narrator is being sarcastic consciously, but is actually revealing their private thoughts (like a Freudian slip).
