Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The White Stripes' (Peel Session) song "Astro" are cryptic and difficult to decipher. The repeated lines "Maybe Jasper/Lily/Jackson/Momma/Tessler does the astro" create a sense of anticipation for what "astro" might be. It could be a dance move or a type of ritual. The sing-song repetition has a hypnotic quality, almost like a chant or a mantra.


The use of different names for each line suggests that these people are all connected in some way, but it's unclear how. The inclusion of "Allison is ac dc" at the end of the final verse adds another layer of mystery to the song. It could be a reference to the band AC/DC, or it could have a different meaning altogether.


Overall, "Astro" is a song that invites interpretation from the listener. It's open to multiple meanings, and the repetitive structure creates a sense of mystery and intrigue.
