drop dead Lyrics - Olivia Rodrigo

[Verse 1]
I know that the bar closes at 11
But I hope you never finish that beer
You know all the words to "Just Like Heaven"
And I know why he wrote them
Now that you're standing right here
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, one night I was bored in bed
And stalked you on the internet
It's feminine intuition
'Cause I always had a vision of us standing like this
All pressed up in the bathroom line
You're looking like an angel on the walls of Versailles
The most alive I've ever been
But kiss me and I might drop dead
[Chorus]
And I feel like I might throw up
Left hook, right punch to the gut
You're so, so pretty, boy
I'm paranoid I made you up
Yeah, I'd love it if you walked me home
If you promised we could go real slow
'Cause I got chewing gum
And a bunch of stuff I'd like to know
Like, have you ever been to Japan?
Or taken that Eurostar to France?
I've been dropping hints all night
That I'd love it if you held my hand, goddamn
And then maybe we could make-makeout
Clothes off and fall to the ground
Let's go steady, let's go out
And tell the whole damn world how
[Pre-Chorus]
One night I was bored in bed
And stalked you on the internet
It's feminine intuition
'Cause I always had a vision of us standing like this
All pressed up in the bathroom line
You're looking like an angel on the walls of Versailles
The most alive I've ever been
But kiss me and I might—
[Bridge]
Pisces and a Gemini
But I think we might go really nice together
If you let me stay the night
Well, I think I might just have to stay forever
Pisces and a Gemini
But I think we might go really nice together
If you let me stay the night
Well, I think I might just have to stay forever
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, one night I was bored in bed
And stalked you on the internet
It's feminine intuition
'Cause I always had a vision of us standing like this
All pressed up in the bathroom line
You're looking like an angel on the walls of Versailles
The most alive I've ever been
But kiss me and I might—
Kiss me and I might—
Kiss me and I might drop dead
