"What would be better than a serenade from the laughing spaceman?"

Mr. Spock - Maiden Wine a.k.a. Bitter Dregs


Take care, young ladies, and value your wine
Be watchful of young men in their velvet prime
Deeply they'll swallow from your finest kegs
Then swiftly be gone, leaving bitter dregs
Ahh-ah-ah-ah, bitter dregs

With smiling words and tender touch
Man offers little and asks for so much
He loves in the breathless excitement of night
Then leaves with your treasure in cold morning light
Ahh-ah-ah-ah, in cold morning light


This song was written by Leonard Nimoy. The full version with musical arrangement appears on his 1969 DOT LP, The Touch Of Leonard Nimoy.
