popo?

[Steve Kl.]

I got this question from an ethnomusicologist friend of mine. If anyone
has any info, please respond to Jennifer directly (unless of course you
think the discussion would be Fun For All; in which case please do copy
jennifer as well.

Her query is what 'popo' might mean.

Thanks.

Steve,

 Basically, I have some lyrics I'm referring to in the dissertation, in
 English, but sung by a Japanese female punk band (the song in its
 entirety copied below).  As you can see, they repeat the word "popo" over
 and over again in this song and I am trying to find out what "popo"
 actually means.  I have heard that in both Italian and Portuguese "popo"
 is slang for "ass."  But just heard from someone else that in
 British-English "popo" is sland for "vagina."

Sample Lyrics - "Popobar" by Super Junky Monkey

You can dance your dance
You can talk hard, loud
You can live your own life with your popo popo popo
You can walk your way
You can talk this way
I can live my own life with my popo popo bar

You can chew your hand
You can kiss yourself
You can live your own life with your popo popo popo
You can leave or stay
If you want it that way
I can live my own life with my popo popo bar, say
...

You can close your eyes
You can open your eyes
You can live your own life with your popo popo popo
You can take a stance
If you like it that way
I can live my own life with my popo popo bar
...

You can dance your dance
You can talk hard loud
You can live your own life with yo, Yeah
You can walk your way
You can talk this way
I can live my own life with yo, Yeah

I can live my own life
I can live my own life
I can live my own life

Live my own life
