Things I Should Have Said To You At The Bar Last Night
Missed Connections in the City of San Francisco
We stared at each other for quite some time last night across that crowded bar.
You, wearing, well, clothes.
I caught your eye and you smiled at me.
I smiled back. You tossed your hair.
I was shy and looked away.
I should have come up to you and said hello.
Thrown out a cheesy pickup line.
Not that I thought they’d work on you, but that you might laugh at my cheesiness.
But I didn’t.
I’m shy.
So here’s a list of cheesy pickup lines:
1. Hello, I’m a thief, and I’m here to steal your heart.
2. Excuse me, can you empty your pockets? I believe you have stolen my heart.
3. Giant polar bear (“What?”) It’s an icebreaker. Hi, my name is….
Which one is your favorite? (note from the ed. #1 You better have one heck of a sexy grin to get anything beyond a roll of the eyes. #2 Just a little too emo-cutesy. Might work on the under 16 crowd… #3 Not bad. Vocal execution will be the determining factor between appearing crazy-good and crazy-not-so-good)
