Story Behind The Song
Inspired by William S. Burroughs Cool Blue Venusians in his trippy novel, "The Nova Express," the Menthol Woman From Venus psychically enters the victims mind and stimulates them to acts of sex and violence of which they would otherwise not be capable.

She made me write it. I can't remember the actual writing, but I remember a maddening riff and a high fever that took days to abate.

Lyrics
Menthol Woman from Venus
She knows what to do with my.
Menthol Woman from Venus
She always brings me in on time.
She sinks me in the ocean
Of her deep red devotion,
Drowns me in her loving wine.
Out on the Street or to a broken beat
She always keeps me feeling cool and fine.
She's my refridgerator, but I'm an alligator,
I want to eat her up all the time, all the time, all the time---- All The Time.
Menthol Woman from Venus
So glad that I waited for you.
Menthol Woman from Venus
No one else could ever do.
It must have been the aura
Of the one named Maura
That drew me right over the line.
Sweet little sister
But she blew out my resistors
Now I'm just passing time, passing time.
Passing time----- Passing Time.
Spoken:
Menthol Woman from Venus
She knows what to do with my.
The pleasures that she gives me,
Well sometimes I wonder why.
Menthol Woman from Venus
I love those things that you do.
Menthol Woman from Venus,
So glad that I waited for you! Yeah!
Repeat 1st to fade.
