Lyric discussion by ArianeTheFool 

OR it could be about Arnold Schwarzenneagar whose name I can't spell, sorry! He's got extreme right wing views like Bush (who Green Day hate) and he's the Govern(at)or of California where Green Day live, so I could see why they wouldn't like him. Or maybe it is about Bush and the title is to do with his problems with words and phrases.

OR there's My Big Number Two Theory which I already posted on the thing for Favourite Son. I'm suggesting that MAYBE Shoplifter, Governator and Favourite Son are background characters from American Idiot that are on Rock Against Bush 2 and AI Bsides for one of two reasons: either A) they were maybe cut from the album because it was too long and they're less important characters or B) Green Day were leaving clues, the sly dogs that they are...

Or maybe I'm a budding conspiracy theorist and this is a load of BS, who knows?
