I'm gonna tell you something you don't wanna hear

You never listen when I talk

Maybe you'll listen when I walk

So I made my mind up and made a sandwich

And I didn't shed a tear

I gave you one last minute of my time

In this mess I left behind

When you come home tonite

And turn on the light

Don't you be surprised to find

My Little Good-byes

Empty hangers by the closet door

Lipstick tube on the bathroom floor

Unpaid bills by the kitchen phone

I took the Beatles, left Billy Joel

My Little Good-byes

I'm sure you're sure I'll be back in just an hour or two

You'll tape a Hallmark to my door

They always said it better than you

And if ya wondering when you're gonna hear from me

Well take a real good look around boy

And it won't be hard to see

When you come home tonite

And turn on the light

Don't you be surprised to find

My Little Good-byes

Took your favorite Dodgers hat

Left the litter, but I took the cat

Loaded up the TV in the back of my car

Have fun watching the VCR

My Little Good-byes

So cry to your mama and your sympathetic friends

And tell em, tell them how the story ends

Took the hourglass left the sand

Now you got time on your hands

Took the statue from Japan

Funny little Buddah man

Change my voice on the machine

Or there'll be little goodbyes with every ring

Left the pictures and took the frames

I've got the umbrella, here comes the ra-in, yeah yeah yeah

Ra-in, yeah yeah yeah

He-ey, yeah yeah yeah

He-ey, yeah yeah yeah

Little Good-Byes
