There are quite some Zappa songs that reference jars:

You tiptoe through the living room to the kitchen to find the cookie jar – your favorite oral gratification: oatmeal raisin cookies! They're in the Aunt Jemima cookie jar. You rip her head off and stuff your sweaty teenage hand into her body. You grab a cookie – tempting raisins, a fascinating tactile sensation – you know you're gonna get off on it. You go to the icebox, open the door, take out a box of milk and pour it into your drinking hole."

Quote from a Zappa lecture during a concert, cited in Zubin And The Mothers, April 1971, article by F.P. Tullius in "Playboy".
