White Zombiewas an American industrial groove metalband named after the 1932 Bela Lugosi film. Their musical style was sample-heavy, based around groovy riffs and Rob Zombie's snarling vocals. The samples that filled their records were mostly from obscure horror films, but used creatively to create a kind of carnival-freakshow vibe. Rob Zombie, still known at this time as Rob Cummings, supported himself through multiple jobs, including working as a cycle courier. Most famously, he was a production assistant on Pee-wee's Playhouse, but he also worked as a designer on pornographic magazines.

White Zombie

Been down yeah! well I look down and my mind blows away
Deep in the darkness illuminate beyond a million miles
Something slid up to my head circling around my eye
Eye
Eyes and I said, smooth operator, sez:
Get up, get up
And outta here, smooth operator sez: yeah! lights
Band the traffic thunder two blocks west of the rest
Tore away the bottom and saw life is a test
Beyond a 1,000,000 miles
Well I ricocheted through my head
One hand kills and the others cra-a-crazy
What she said
Smooth operator sez: get up! get up! and outta here
Smooth operator sez: yeah!!! sail into night
Ghost ship a tripping
Struck by the plunge something to see
Yeah
Bootleg the girl
She is a looka
Pure is the fear that breaks away
Straight to the sun I am a walkn state of the art
All that I see [yeah] new gods move wippn the shore and dash on the reef
Surf city... I walk alone and stare, man, right in the sun
Tear-jerk asylum and cemetery run
Well, howd I ever get this far man
Smooth curves switchback the sweat
Underneath the body, baby
Where what you see is what you see and what you get.
