You are right, he needs to sing the words too.
There's an MP3 on the page at this link, "Dick Dale Sings Miserlou!":

Paul Gilbert "perfected" the power drill... Legend has it he got his mane of hair caught in it at least once

Skip forward to the 5 minute mark to see a drill in the hands of a "master"

Seriously skip to 5 minutes... I said skip... No, for your own good skip!!!!! Duhrill It!

Tsk tsk, so EVH was trying to steal Gilbert's drillin' thunder when he recorded Poundcake. I know Eddie wasn't the first guy to fingertap or divebomb either, and now this.

Speaking of hair metal's fascination with electrical appliances:

I prefer a 10.8V Lithium-ion Cordless Dremel. 35,000 rpms of raw picking power.

This gives a whole different image to the term "beater".
