This song is a sly little parody of the Lovecraft tale 'Shadow over Innsmouth'. The protagonist meets a compelling gal at the 'Esoteric Order of Dagon' and falls under the spell of the 'Innsmouth Look'. In the story many/most people from Innsmouth are actually the children of Hybrid breeding between humans and 'Deep Ones' (lovecraft's creepy submarine servants of Dagon). When they reach a certain age they start developing the 'Innsmouth Look' as their Black Lagoon nature starts to gain ascendence. In the song it's implied that someone can 'get' the Innsmouth look and partake of their 'secrets'.
