Trism Lyrics

Lyric discussion by thatsnomoon 

Cover art for Trism lyrics by B-52's, The

Stella and Corona are beers, as well as astronomical terms. The B's knew how to party.

My Interpretation

Extraordinarily unlikely that they were referring to the imported beer brands.

@thatsnomoon Given the context, I'd thought that it might be a fictional car make/model, but looking at the lyrics closely, it seems that Stella Corona is the name of the girl in the song and trism is some sort of (science) fictional teleportation.

Stella is Italian for star and Corona is Latin for crown, so there's a vague suggestion of a celestial princess here. Stella is a female given name that seems apt for the beehive hairdo era the B-52s liked to lampoon. But yes, both also have a meaning in astronomy, and both also beers.
