Dregs of the Wine Lyrics
[Intro]
While I prefer the original version of "You Really Got Me"
She will defer to the Van Halen version
[Verse 1]
Took the boat to the hacienda
Through swimming pools, oh so placid
Saw Redd Foxx, took a hit of acid
Saw the smiling queen of Thailand
[Pre-Chorus]
And then it's time to go
I said it's time to go
[Chorus]
Are we gonna make it?
Are we gonna make it?
We gotta face it
Are we gonna make it?
[Verse 2]
We done run out of all our tricks
We flew a plane with lion tamers
Back to Brazil in '66
End of the world and I don't blame her
[Pre-Chorus]
And then it's time to go
It's really time to go
[Chorus]
But are we gonna make it?
Are we gonna make it?
We gotta face this
Are we gonna make it?
[Bridge]
Drinking the dregs of the wine
Under the Hollywood sign
Drinking the dregs of the wine
'Til it's gone
Drinking the dregs of the wine
Under the Hollywood sign
Drinking the dregs of the wine
There's no more
[Outro]
It has the charm of hepcat circuit jazz
It has the swagger of a snake with arms
