GT4494 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Best I could find!! https://www.straightdope.com/21342137/in-steve-miller-s-the-joker-what-is-the-pompatus-of-love One song was “The Letter,” Green’s attempt to conjure up his dream woman. The mystery words, J.K. ascertained after talking with Green, were “puppetutes” and “pizmotality.” (Green wasn’t much for writing things down, so the spellings are approximate.) “Pizmotality described words of such secrecy that they could only be spoken to the one you loved,” Green told Cryer. And puppetutes? “A term I coined to mean a secret paper-doll fantasy figure [thus puppet], who would be my everything and bear my children.” Not real PC, but look, it was 1954. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
