who put the pepper

what does this song mean? where are these people putting vaseline and why? seriously?

WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
OH LORD HE CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN

WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
OH LORD HE CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN

TWO SISSYS LIVING HERE IN AN APARTMENT
WEEKS GO BY THEY NEVER PAY NO RENT
THEY NEVER LEAVE THE MAID A SOLITARY CENT
SHE PUT PEPPER IN VASELINE AND AWAY SHE WENT
(YOU SHOULD HEAR THEM)

WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
OH LORD HE CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN

SOLO

WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
OH LORD HE CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN

WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
OH LORD HE CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN

THEY CALLED THE POLICE TO COME INVESTIGATE
FOUR OCLOCK IN THE MORNING AND THEY'RE KNOCKING AT THE GATE
ONE WAS RUNNING IN, ANOTHER WAS RUNNING OUT
OH LORD HE GOT SOME PEPPER ON HIS MOUTH
(WHAT A MESS)

WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
OH LORD HE CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN

SOLO

WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
WHO PUT THE PEPPER IN THE VASELINE
OH LORD HE CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN
OH LORD HE CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN
