THis is a nice song - but what is it about? Remember that Alice Cooper was the original shock rocker. I am pretty sure it is a jazzy tune about necrophilia. I have been hearing this o my ipod lately and kept thinking it is about sex, basically, and after the sex the narrator doesn't think much of the girl, who seems pretty passive, and I thought, "Well, he's a misogynist."
But now that I am here and am actually reading the lyrics I am seeing her described as cold, earthworms, lame, graveyards - uhh - I am starting to see some necrophiliac spiel here.
Only "One spastic explosion two pressure cookers go insane" doesn't fit into this interpretation, does it? If she were dead there wouldn't be "two" pressure cookers going insane, would there?
It would be interesting to hear from somebody who had seen this song performed live back in the day as Alice Cooper had quite a stage show - might add some insight.
It depends how you look at it. i think all songs are written openly for people to interpret them as they wish. She could be a pressure cooker if she was boiling inside with magets and worms!

This particular "necro" themed AC group song is about a couple, both alive, who play a weird game where she plays dead, because it turns them on.
"Cold Ethyl" - off "Welcome To My Nightmare" - is also about a couple having sex ...but the girl's not playing.
