lyrics

A1
She had an aperol spritz,
And I don't know just what beverage I picked.
But with no tolerance,
I went and blacked out just after we kissed.

B1
So, I don't know what happened
Outright by the night's end.
The drinks were to blame,
'Cause I don't know her name.
And between language barriers
And no cellphone carriers
Serving the states,
Well, it sets the whole stage
For a fool.
Lord, what do I do?

A2
I asked for aperol spritz,
But this beverage cart doesn't have shit
But a nineties playlist
And a stereo playing the hits.

B2
So I checked Christiania
With "Santa Monica"
Stuck in my head,
Next to existential dread.
I did a new sleepwalk dance
To pursue old romances
Forgotten and dead.
Will I see her again?
I'm a fool.
Lord, what did I do?

A3
Hey Aperol Spritz.
I was thinking 'bout jumping that bridge,
Throwing tantrums and fits
Over chances I had that I missed.

B3
Well my flight leaves at eleven,
Followed up by the seven hour
Layover blues.
I'll be coming unglued.
And I'll cross the Atlantic
In a fear-of-heights panic
Just knowing we're through.
But really, what's new?
Pretzeled up with no space between
The seat right in front of me
And both of my knees.
I'm too tall for these things.
When the flight attendant passes
And asks what I'll be having
I'll be cordial, I think.
I won't order a drink,
But I'll wish
They had aperol spritz.
