Drinking from the Bottle
Calvin Harris Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I-I-I-I-I-I could pay for everything that's on you
So everything is on me
Got them girls going Cindy Lauper
GaGa and a little Blondie
If you ain't drunk
Then you in the wrong club
Don't feel sexy
You're on the wrong beach
Tell the bar that we don't want no glass
Just bottles and I'm buying everybody one each

Yeah so bring the Veuve Clicquot
D about to hit the big 3.O
Party like it's carnival in Rio
Life's too short, Danny DeVito
Yo, we live
We die, we give
We try, we kiss
We fight
All so we can have a good time

I'm in here busy looking for the next top model
Who's wearing something new and something old
And something borrowed
I know this crazy life can be a bitter pill to swallow
So forget about tomorrow

Tonight, we're drinking from the bottle
We're drinking from the bottle

Yeah, I was done with this thing getting it wrong
Then everything is alright
Got them girls going Heidi Klum
The Kardashians, Rihanna, all types
If you ain't lean, then you in the wrong scene
If you ain't high, then you not on my vibe
Tell the bar that we don't need no sparklers or nothin'
Just keep the bottles coming all night

Yeah so bring the Veuve Clicquot
D about to hit the big 3.O
Party like it's carnival in Rio
Life's too short, Danny DeVito
Yo, we live
We die, we give
We try, we kiss
We fight
All so we can have a good time, yeah

I'm in here busy looking for the Next Top Model
Who's wearing something new and something old
And something borrowed
I know this crazy life can be a bitter pill to swallow
So forget about tomorrow

Tonight, we're drinking from the bottle
We're drinking from the bottle

(I'm in here busy looking for the Next Top Model)
(I'm in here busy looking for the Next Top Model)
(I'm in here busy looking for the Next Top Model)
(The Next Top Model)
(The Next Top Model)
(I'm in here busy looking for the Next Top Model)
(The Next Top Model)
(The Next Top Model)

Tonight,we're drinking from the bottle
We're drinking from the bottle

Overall Meaning

In "Drinking from the Bottle," Calvin Harris invites his listeners to forget their problems and indulge in the pleasures of life. The lyrics feature a lot of colloquial phrases and pop culture references. Harris seems to be describing an extravagant night out with friends where they are free to be drunk or high and party like there's no tomorrow. The opening lines, "I could pay for everything that's on you, so everything is on me," set the tone for the song's excessiveness. The chorus, "Tonight, we're drinking from the bottle," serves as a carefree reminder that there is no need to hold back.


Throughout the verses, Harris uses fashionable and famous women to describe the feeling of the night. He references Cindy Lauper, Gaga, and Blondie, all impressive icons that the women at the club may be inspired by. The lyrics hint that the night is full of attraction and excitement, even comparing it to a carnival in Rio. He advocates for living with joy, and in the bridge, encourages his listeners to forget about tomorrow because tonight is all that matters. This song promotes a "live fast, die young" mentality, where moments in the present are more important than the future.
