Following the releases of “cliché” and “vampire diaries,” mgk has arrived with his new single and music video for his track “miss sunshine” from his upcoming album lost americana, due out on August 8.
In a social media post, mgk shared, “we have LSD to thank for this one.” Plus, it seems like the artist cut it close and wasn’t sure if he could get the video up in time alongside the single release, but he shared at nearly 10 PM, “got it done in time, video coming out with the song tonight.”
In the goofy music video, mgk is seen playing a mini guitar, riding in little cars, singing into a teeny tiny microphone, and of course, hanging out with a kitten. The joy and whimsy of the visuals perfectly pair with the folk-laced pop track, ideal for the dog days of summer.
Check out the track below.
“miss sunshine” Lyrics:
Hey, Miss Sunshine, I took a tab and felt the sky
It’s a good life, and then it’s bad, but that’s alright
On the bright side, we all sin and sympathize
So in the meantime, might as well enjoy the ride
Four seats of five people ’bout to take a daytrip
Roll the windows, roll one up, let’s make a spaceship
Where’s the volume? Turn it up, who got the playlist?
Everybody sings the song, just like we’re famous
We were royalty in a cheap hotel
Dazеd and confused, but we clean up wеll
Didn’t need no help for a hell of a time
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, yeah
It’s a long way home, uh
It’s a long way home (Don’t know which way to go)
It’s a long way home, mm-mm
It’s a long way home
Uh-uh

These bad decisions I make, it’s just me avoiding boredom
Call it ironic, I got money and poor decorum
Feels like I’m flying off coffee and Coca, uh, ah, Cola
Only lights on my horizon are the ones that pull me over (Damn)
Yeah, I’ma drifter, just let me go
It’s the only life I know
Chasing vultures and black crows
To the promise land, I’m sold
We were royalty in a cheap hotel
Dazed and confused, but we clean up well
Didn’t need no help for a hell of a time
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, alright
It’s a long way home, uh
It’s a long way home (Don’t know which way to go)
It’s a long way home, mm-mm
It’s a long way home
I got my shades on (It’s always like there’s a line)
Because the day’s long (There’s a line and then you just click on it)
I’m on the highway, uh (In my key bag)
I got to move on (That’s what I’m talking about)
