Not sure if it’s canon, absolute, comprehensive, end-all-be-all “about,” but … just a proximal point of reference fwiw

Venus” [~ 1:24] is the first song that I’ve done that I’ve produced myself. I did work on it a little bit with Madeon, he did some co-production, but this is really like: my record. And this song is, a hybrid of a couple different things. One of those things is Venus, the goddess of love, as we know in Roman and Greek mythology; and then, it’s also about the planets. So, this song is about faith, but it’s also about finding faith in other places — in the beyond — and, my experience with love being something that took me a really long time to find. So, it’s really psychedelic, and it really takes you on a journey, and I sampled Sun-Ra, “Rocket Number Nine” — which was later re-done by, a French group, Zombie Zombie; so I kind of got this, a lot of different inspiration from the sort of futuristic-disco-meets-late-70s and jazz and this really kind of gooey deep-groove, and I spent a lot of time working on that bassline, making it just what I wanted it to be. So, I sing, “Goddess of Love, take me to your leader, take me to your planet; take me to your leader, take me to your Venus.” So, this song’s really about sex, but it’s about sex in the most mythological way…”

 

 

Neither here nor there, but hope it helps nonetheless

slight aside, in retrospect, from the abstract, the cosmic otherworldly take me to your planet take me to your leader … feels a bit like an anthem hearkening to the emergence of the divine feminine revolution from a “through the potential of…” vantage

it's all a big sexual innuendo for Va̶g̶i̶n̶a̶  

Venus and Aphrodite are Roman/Greek goddesses of love, sex, fertility. She plays with that + Venus the planet. 

Rocket #9 = Penis

Venus = Vag

garden panty = hairy vag

seashell bikini plays with the painting of Venus

"Have an oyster, baby, it’s Aphrod-ishy, act sleazy" has to do with oysters being an aphrodisiac so she connects the seashell thing + Aphrodite here

popart was taking popular things like the campbell's soup can/marilyn monroe and putting them in art

ARTPOP was her reverse version of it where she takes art like the Venus painting and puts them in pop culture.. which she is 

"Pop culture was in art now art's in pop culture in me"

 

 

and this, ladies, is why we stan keanu reeves :gaycat:

but all jokes aside, thank you for helping me understand the “have an oyster, baby” lyric. it really shows just how smart gaga is with her wordplay in song writing!

It’s obviously about sex. At least superficially. If you wanna dig deeper then I guess it has various interpretations, but it’s honestly a sex song.
