Lyrics Dregs of the Wine – Pixies
While I prefer the original version of, You Really Got Me
She will defer to the Van Halen version
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
And then it’s time to go
I said it’s time to go
Are we gonna make it
Are we gonna make it
We gotta face it
Are we gonna make it
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
And then it’s time to go
It’s really time to go
But are we gonna make it
Are we gonna make it
We gotta face this
Are we gonna make it
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
It has the charm of hepcat, uh, uh, circuit jazz
It has the swagger of a snake with arms…
