What? Lyrics

Lyric discussion by cantide8405 

Cover art for What? lyrics by Rob Zombie

it kinda sounds to me like he's saying " fate and cheerleaders, bouncing pom-poms, bouncing pom-poms"

but I could be wrong.

But what about the meaning? Cantide8405, don't you have any input on the meaning or symbolism of or within the song or not?

I've . . . kinda given up on finding the meaning in anything out of Rob Zombie. not that I don't think it's there, mind, more that I think he is a true artist, and the meanings are multi-layered and deeply buried. the good thing about that is that many people can hear it, and come away with different meanings, and get part of the picture, or you can just rock out to it and not worry about the meanings.

the bad part is when asked to comment on the meaning, as a Libra, I'm inclined to give a long-winded explanation that's basically...

Yeah man that's what i do, I just rock out with my cock out.. I pay no mind. I mean, it's metal.. I'm definitely not expecting much, but I do like heavy diabolical sounds. Zombie's got this weird horror fetish, and while I would never act upon his music as a listener, I do appreciate his wild theatrics.. he's definitely what I'd consider an artist, even if his content is mostly chock full of blatant horsepucky.
