He certainly did earn that reputation.
I’m a steel driver… railroad spike right in your ear
I’m a hot rodder… with a greasy ballpeen hammer dear
As the eggheads rot in the sulphur pits of Hell
You’ll hear me laughin’… ringin’ death’s doorbell
Your eyeballs extracted… exactly just so
Fit to be tied… cross your beak in a pretty bow
They found her body beautiful, but never found her head
Just a sweet goo and a nylon tricot thread
Just one good tire on my Monte Carlo Alamo
Just one good blow to the fissure of Rolando
I’m a hot rodder… with a greasy ballpeen hammer dear
As the eggheads rot in the sulphur pits of Hell
You’ll hear me laughin’… ringin’ death’s doorbell
Your eyeballs extracted… exactly just so
Fit to be tied… cross your beak in a pretty bow
They found her body beautiful, but never found her head
Just a sweet goo and a nylon tricot thread
Just one good tire on my Monte Carlo Alamo
Just one good blow to the fissure of Rolando

This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Unpleasant in what way? Not many of their fans would even call them a 'pleasant' band...
