It was big news when you hit town
Most talked-about girl around
Then you pulled the latest trick on me
Now, baby, you're history
Had 'em eating from the palm of your hand
You couldn't settle for just one man
Had us hangin' on the edge like a mystery
Now, honey, you're history
You thought that you were the latest fad
Now you done gone, made everybody mad
Had a reputation that would always last
You had a big future now you got a big past
Couldn't give away your kisses for free
Let's face it, you're history
You thought that you were the latest fad
Now you done gone, made everybody mad
You were the star of the silver screen
But now I'm gonna waltz you right outta my scene
Gone with the wind like Vivien Leigh
Frankly, my dear, you're history
Most talked-about girl around

You thought that you were the latest fad
Now you done gone, made everybody mad

You were the star of the silver screen
But now I'm gonna waltz you right outta my scene
Gone with the wind like Vivien Leigh
Frankly, my dear, you're history
