@Vindrag oh so double meaning! that would make sense as the lyrics are obviously about cocaine and koko is an abbreviation of cocaine it's like she's saying to do cocaine is stupid, as she explains the experience through the rest of the song!
i figured the title is a play on the word 'cocaine' and she is singing about cutting it up (sharp as teeth and stars) and how she loves it (i can't give you up) and then the 'soon be nothing of this world' describes the feeling of the (fake)over-confident high she is about to be getting..just a guess...but seems to make the most sense..
@GiorgosAskalidis I'm not sure if you've seen any of her music videos and how weird they are. Once you watch enough of them, you kinda take them and their titles with a grain of salt. lol
My ABSOLUTE fav Goldfrapp song!

Over 5 years and I still love this song, and the whole album (Supernature)!!
Well, everything by Goldfrapp is amazing!
Koko in Swedish by the way means "stupid"!

well in Burmese, "koko" is a nickname you call your boyfriend. And if you don't know where Burma is, it's a country in southeast Asia ;)

Superb track, from the moment I hear this I got goose bumps. Gary Numan would be very proud..

This is one of my favourite Goldfrapp songs. She sounds like some kind of mad Wagnerian Diva running across the dancefloor swinging a discoball!
