lyrics

We camp behind the villa in bikinis in the night
A runaway vacation but still it isn’t quite
And then you hit the bottle
And then you hit your stride
For a long hot alky summer

Twisted when the sun came up we ate and then you drank
For eighty mornings in a row and wound up in the tank
With no one left to bother
When you took off with the twins
For that sudden alky summer

Such an up-and-comer
Italian Alky Summer
Such an up-and-comer
Italian Alky Summer
It was bright until December
And I really can’t remember
And you

Days wore down the brothers found you waving in the shade
Atomizing equal parts of rum and lemonade
‘Til all the major journals
Discovered what you’d made
Of a single alky summer

Such an up-and-comer
Italian Alky Summer
Such an up-and-comer
Italian Alky Summer
It was bright until December
And I really can’t remember
