I’m not familiar with the song.

Personally I haven’t seen cooking used in slang until Breaking Bad became obnoxiously popular.

But that’s just my experience.

I don't think it was used as slang in Breaking Bad, they were just cooking meth. Maybe the whole "We have to cook, Jessie" quote gained new meaning after the fact, but that line and others like it are just about making meth in context.

In the show is wasn’t but pop culture ran amok with that one.
