about
'Gina In A Bottle' is Star Circus' first release since their debut album in December 2022. The new single leans towards a heavier, more modern sound, while still remaining true to their 80s and 90s rock influences.
The song depicts the story of an alcohol-fueled turbulent romance, derived from songwriter Dave Winkler's own encounter with the scandalous "Gina". The single captures the essence of the band's dynamic stage presence, while the song's musical energy and provocative lyrics promise to leave a lasting impression. Listeners can expect driving guitar riffs with a strong dose of glam metal satire.
lyrics
GINA IN A BOTTLE
I could see the fire when I caught her eye
She wanted a good time
We were heading for a rock n' rollercoaster ride
I trod on a landmine
like a Gina-tonic with a twist
It ended at her place
Tasted like lust from the moment we kissed
The touch of her hand like a slap in the face
Oh baby, she's crazy, on JD
(Gina in a bottle)
She's wasted, she tasted... good
Train-wreck terror heading off the track
I'm headed for trouble
Suicide bomber she's a heart attack
The sharpest of worlds that burst my bubble
G-G-Gina!
Oh baby, she's crazy, on JD
(Gina in a bottle)
She's wasted, she tasted good
Tequilla, Sangria, Sambuca
(Gina in a bottle)
She's drinking, I'm sinking
Down, down, down, down, down...
(Are you going?)
Down, down, down, down, down...
Have you seen her when she's knocking 'em down?
(Gina, Gina, Gina Gina in a bottle)
Oh baby, she's crazy, on JD
She's drinking, I'm sinking... down
Gina, Gina, Gina, Gina in a bottle...
