He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.
Penetrate, Penetrate
All the simple minds
They adore, what a bore how they stand in line
Dilate, Dilate
What's my drug of choice?
It's okay when they pay they say I got the voice
Look at this the motherfucker is a millionaire
Realize it's a mask that you wear
Violate, Violate
Such a simple plan
Turn me on turn me on Mr. Deadman
Yeah I want it
I need it
To make a million
Yeah I love it
A fuckin' rockstar
Penetrate, Penetrate
All the simple minds
They adore, what a bore how they stand in line
Dilate, Dilate
What's my drug of choice?
It's okay when they pay they say I got the voice
Look at this the little faggot is a millionaire
Realize it's a mask that you wear
Violate, Violate
Such a simple plan
Turn me on turn me on Mr. Deadman
All the simple minds
They adore, what a bore how they stand in line
Dilate, Dilate
What's my drug of choice?
It's okay when they pay they say I got the voice
Look at this the motherfucker is a millionaire
Realize it's a mask that you wear
Violate, Violate
Such a simple plan
Turn me on turn me on Mr. Deadman
Yeah I want it
I need it
To make a million

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Well actually the title is yet another Beatles reference. Turn Me On Mr Deadman is what what is believed to be said by John in Revolution #9 when played backwards,it is supposed to be a clue in the Paul Is Dead theory.
I actually think it's about being a big rockstar millionaire. People pay, they stand in line for your concerts, they like your voice. You can say anything in your lyrics and get kids to understand it or hear it or do anything you tell them to(Penetrate all the simple minds). Maybe about how rock stars only care about money these days and not those fans too.
Here's a thought: What's his drug of choice? Turn me on (M)r. (D)ead(m)(a)n. MDMA....aka ecstasy. Not saying that's the literal meaning of the whole song, but makes one wonder if it was a little tip of the hat, since it's a party drug one would expect rockstars to indulge in on occasion.
I think this song refers to Slipknot, the lyrics just made me think Slipknot.
"Penetrate, Penetrate all the simple minds "
The way Slipknot appeal to kids.
"realize its a mask that you wear "
They make money, due to the fact they wear their masks, and act "hard" when they arent.
"turn me on turn me on mr. deadman "
Doing it for the money; selling out
it's probably a mile off, but...
Well it may refer to Slipknot after you pointed that out but i like slipknot a little.
well damn, i never thought of it like that.. but it makes.. a hell of a lot of sense.
evidently we have some beatles fanatic that sees something about the beatles in every single song he or she hears. very few if any modern rock songs have beatles references. Anyway, I have no idea what this song means and since I don't listen to slipknot, I wouldn't really be able to make that connection
WTF?
this song is class, i love this song, 2 bad some of thier other songs r SHIT!
i think this song is a really good song that is about pop stars not rockstars u know "Penetrate all the simple minds" who r get the dumb shit music to the most ppl pop stars i mean come on the ppl that ONLY listen to pop r very simple and "realize its a mask that you wear " is saying that their always puting on a show never showing who the really r . the millionaire thing fits in with this idea because lets face it the make more money then any person in music well other then rappers
