It's a wordplay.

Krokdil = crocodile

bil= butt, or buttcheek

krokobil : crocobutt

It's basically how, if you have a large derriere, our buttcheeks can sort of open and close like a crocodile's jaw.

Hey, I didn't come up with it.

but it's about butts, basically.

[herpymcderp]

Well, full disclosure, krokdil (or krokodil, depending on how you spell it) is also the name of a relatively new street drug that's increasingly gaining popularity in the Ukraine and Russia and several other Slavic nations. It's so named because of the incredibly nasty effect is has on the appearance of the skin of users... it makes them scaly like a crocodile.

It's a heroin derivative that is apparently much more addictive than even normal heroin. ...So. I was wondering if the song was referencing that.

[kallanda_lee]

Oh, I know! It's not - though obviously the word and the name of the drug are related.

[intrigueing]

Yeah, I think that appearance happens because it causes layers of skin to become gangrenous due to infection and/or damage to the veins and capillaries, and so it's called flesh-eating, etc. Which mostly because it tends to be extremely impure and full of metals and shit, not because desomorphine itself causes tissue damage. Amputation is pretty common I hear... O.O

[herpymcderp]

Well according to the information I received it was more due to the fact that it is cut with... almost anything the people distributing it can lay their hands on, since it retains stability and efficacy much better as a compound than traditional heroin does.

And in turn this does cause a lot of impact to capillaries and lymph drainage that contributes to the issues you described. So yeah. Nasty stuff, really. I was about to have a serious wtf moment if some clean-looking European hip hop crew were just casually rapping about it.
