  • I bought a hot rod car just to leave you behind
    Took some little white pills to take you off of my mind
    I threw your shit out of my house, I'm keeping the cat
    I'm going out and throwing out the welcome mat

    Now I'm stepping off the curb in my brand-new kicks
    Leaving you in the dirt with your dirty tricks
    I bought a new queen bed that I don't have to share
    I got a new wig to get you out of my hair

    So long, little Miss Sunshine
    Adios to my used-to-be
    Leave you behind, no time for goodbye
    Breaking up with the old me

    I changed my guitar strings so I can tune you out
    I got a new song to sing, you don't know who it's about
    I've been rehearsing, reversing the person before
    Crossed you out like a cliche metaphor

    I used to play real nice, now I go straight for the kill
    I was the girl next door, now I'm straight out of hell
    Got you off of my back, now I'm walking on air
    I got a new wig to get you out of my hair

    So long, little Miss Sunshine
    Adios to my used-to-be
    Leave you behind, no time for goodbye
    Breaking up with the old me

    Bye-bye banging on the minor keys
    Bye-bye head full of doubt
    Bye-bye all your insecurities
    Bye-bye, baby, I'm cutting you out

    Bye-bye banging on the minor keys
    Bye-bye head full of doubt
    Bye-bye trying to be the boss of me
    You're pulling on my puppet strings
    You make me wanna shout

    So long, little Miss Sunshine
    Adios to my used-to-be
    Leave you behind, no time for goodbye
