That question or something like it may well have been on the minds of many a confused adult back in the early years of the Nixon era, when a strange band with a taste for Grand Guignol excess finally hit the Top 40. As has since become common among bands which traffick heavily in false eyelashes, mascara, violence and sadism, the band Alice Cooper (which would only later become associated with a single person) was the stuff of myths and legends, and songs like this one made many a heart tremble. Hearing it today it still sends an eerie shiver -- despite the fact that the subject matter is now the stuff of the daily paper. Note: the word "agrophile" was possibly a neologism on Cooper's part, but you can find it a lot of on-line dictionaries: "something which thrives or lives in cultivated soil." Or, as we call them, dirtbags.
