Is this Boa the Killer?

ALICE COOPER: Killer (Warner Bros. K 56005)

Machine gun rock & roll from a geniune wild-man of pop. Alice displays great capabilities as a harsh R&R singer with real grit in his voice and style in his delivery. The ban rely heavily on terrific beat guitar and some pounding drums. Musically, this is credible and well played. Does 'Killer' refer to the harmless boa constrictor that slithers in and out of Alice's drawers searching for hapless mice? The snake is featured twice on the cover and looks somewhat bewildered by the garrish band members.
