That song slapped back in the day, but those lyrics were nonsense.

That song slapped back on the day, it slaps today. The lyrics could be a recipe for scones and it would still slap.

Grab all purpose flour!

Sugar eggs 'n powder

cream, egg n' butter

Mix it all together!

heavy guitar riff

Tool did that once. Die Eier von Satan. It's a pretty different recipe than scones, though.

We actually made them once. Was rather meh. There's also not enough Türkisches Haschisch to have any kind of effect.

Dough it baby
Dough it baby

Dig through the scones that have burned to find the scones that I'll slam in my mouth and my asshole yeah!

I still want to know what a Dragula is.

The Dragula was a drag racing car shaped like a coffin that Grandpa built in the 60's TV show The Munsters. Not sure if that's what the song is referring to, but given how much Rob Zombie likes old horror tv and movies and stuff, my guess is that's the most likely reference.

And for some ready he's driving the Munster Coach in the music video instead of the Dragula.

Maybe you just don't have the correct headspace and timing to understand. Are you a Poet Laureate? Are you an editor? What qualifications do you have to be the judge? Just cuz the lyrics are out of your reach doesn't mean they're out of the reach of others.

I first discovered this song a month or so ago while re-watching The Matrix (totally holds up btw, in spite of all the far right nut jobs trying to claim it as theirs) 25 years after I first heard it 25 years ago but didn't actively notice 😄

And yeah, it fucking slaps!
