THE DIONYSIANS: Dionysos, We are come to praise you For the wondrous blessing, the taste of wine. Evoe! Alalai! Alalai! Evoe! Alalalalalalai! Dionysos, We are come to thank you For the gentle tendrils that intertwine To produce the grapes that produce the wine. Evoe! Alalai! Alalai! Evoe! Alalalalalalai! Out of wine comes truth, Out of truth the vision clears, And with vision soon appears A grand design. From the grand design You can understand the world. And when you understand the world, You need a lot more wine. Dionysos, We are come to join you In a shout of joy at the only shrine Where you come benighted and leave benign. For that endless blessing, the taste of wine, Evoe! Alalai! Alalai! Evoe! Alalalalalalai! Evoe! Wine makes the passions sing, Wine leads the feet to dance, Wine answers every question. Pour the wine! Wine takes away the sting, Wine gives the heart its chance, Wine aids the indigestion. Pour the wine! See the curmudgeon smile, Hear the insomniac snore, Look at the coward roar, All from the vine. Pour the wine! Wine lends a sense of style, Wine gets the spirit to soar, Wine makes you thirsty -- pour more wine! More Wine! Wine helps the edges blur, Wine lets the mind escape, Wine settles all dissension. Pour the wine! Wine makes the blood to stir, Wine leads to friendly rape, Wine eases tension -- What an invention Is wine! Pour the wine! Glory be to wine! DIONYSOS: Dionysos, They are come to praise me For the great discovery of them all. THE DIONYSIANS: Evoe! DIONYSOS: Alalai! Alalai! THE DIONYSIANS: Evoe! DIONYSOS: Alalalalalalai! THE DIONYSIANS: Dionysos... DIONYSOS: Red or white or pink It's the thing to drink -- THE DIONYSIANS: We are come to thank you... We are come to praise... DIONYSOS: Evoe! THE DIONYSIANS: Evoe! Alalalalalalai! DIONYSOS: Woo-hoo -- it's getting a little hot. XANTHIAS: Well, this is Hades. DIONYSOS: I'm sorry, have we met? XANTHIAS: I'm Xanthias! DIONYSOS: Oh right. Want some wine? Alalalalalalalalalalalalalalai! WOMEN: Alalalalalalalalalalalalalalai! Lalalalalalalalalalalalai! Lalalalalalalalalalalalai! MEN: Dionysos Dionysos THE DIONYSIANS: Alalalalalalalalalalalalalalai! Lalalalalalalalalalalalai! MEN: Dionysos! Dionysos! THE DIONYSIANS: Evoe! Alalai, alalai! Evoe! Alalalalalalai! Alalalalalalalalalalalalalalai! Lalalalalalalalalalalalai! Dionysos! We are come to praise you For the mind's escape For the friendly rape We are come to praise We are come to praise by the fading light, To exalt your name in the sacred rite. DIONYSOS: Which begins at five And goes on all night! Evoe! THE DIONYSIANS: Evoe! DIONYSOS: Evoe! THE DIONYSIANS: Evoe! ALL: Evoe! Alalai! Back to main page: Frogs Lyrics
