It's about heroin. The silver rocket is the syringe. its a bad habit that jades you while taking you to other worlds. The surreal transcendental imagery echoes William Burroughs, who they would later collaborate with. |

i love the fantastic/post-apocolyptic-sci-fi shit in this album. It's so cool and honest and psychological. |

That's good stuff. My guess is Jack the ripper is some kind of metaphor. Like how people can look really good on the outside but sinister on the inside. Or maybe it's about remorse; like getting looked at by all these different colored eyes is about remorse for sins you've committed. This song always makes me think of devious men swindling naive girls. |
