*The chorus may be a complicated reference to marijuana, a drug Manson favored in the making of the album. Dagga is a plant native to South Africa, and is often mistaken for Indian hemp. Buzz-Buzz is a term for getting a buzz off a substance, marijuana in particular and a Zig Zag is actually a brand of rolling papers famous for the silhouette of a bearded smoker on the label.
