White Snake
Late of the Pier Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey, we gotta another whitesnake tonight
Said somethin' and I feel alright

I said we.he, we gotta another whitesnake tonight
Said somethin' and I feel alright

I said we.hee.he, I said we.he, we gotta another whitesnake tonight
Said somethin' and I feel alright, sight

Wet in a bar minisherner
Innocence is such a crime
Hard working sound in vision
To bring you the beast in time

Hoping for stormy weather
Waiting for that proper time
When centerfakes swamp together
Twisted jay, and say nine

And I re.alized for one
My life ain't living up
And I wrote the book to our.be-known.be-known future

Hey, we gotta another whitesnake tonight
Said somethin' and I feel alright

I said we.he, we gotta another whitesnake tonight
Said somethin' and I feel alright

I said we.hee.he, I said we.he, we gotta another whitesnake tonight
Said somethin' and I feel alright, sight

Whitesnake Whitesnake Whitesnake

They express this excitement by saying "Said somethin' and I feel alright," which seems to suggest that the music and the atmosphere is making them feel good.

In the second verse, the lyrics describe the atmosphere of the venue. The "bar minisherner" could be a reference to a specific bar or venue. The lyrics suggest that there is a sense of innocence being lost in this environment, stating that "innocence is such a crime."
