Things That I Won’t Miss

Things were never perfect

In our unhappy home

You always caused me pain

Just like a kidney stone

Then you walked in one day

While I was in my chair

You said you were leaving

And I wouldn’t have a prayer

You said once you were gone

My life would be a mess

Well darlin’ before you go

I need to get this off my chest

I won’t miss your whining

And I won’t miss your bitchin’

Or the smell of burnt food

Coming from the kitchen

I won’t miss your moodiness

And I won’t miss your drama

And all the criticism

Coming from your mamma

I might miss your lovin’

And I might miss your kiss

But there’s so much more of you…

That I just won’t miss

I could tell you were in shock

By everything you’d heard

And you couldn’t believe

That I would have the nerve

As you walked to your car

I opened up a beer

And thought how things would be

Without you being here

I won’t miss your whining

And I won’t miss your bitchin’

Or the smell of burnt food

Coming from the kitchen

I won’t miss your moodiness

And I won’t miss your drama

And all the criticism

Coming from your mamma

I might miss your lovin’

And I might miss your kiss

But there’s so much more of you…

That I just won’t miss

Bridge

They say one day you’ll miss

What you’ve no longer got

I don’t know if that’s true

But babe I’ll tell you what

I won’t miss your whining

And I won’t miss your bitchin’

Or the smell of burnt food

Coming from the kitchen

I won’t miss your moodiness

And I won’t miss your drama

And all the criticism

Coming from your mamma

I might miss your lovin’

And I might miss your kiss

But there’s so much more of you…

That I just won’t miss
