Toots Hibbert is a referece to the guy from Toots & The Maytals. I think the funny car/monster truck references the ice cream truck Doughty drove one summer.. Dervin and Joseph were musicians he met in Jamaica. "Cocoa mop" may be a referece to dreadlocks?
I think the whole song is about being dumped.. like getting chewed up, shat out, and feeling scattered (disseminated).
For a little insight into this song, read: http://nypress.com/14/21/sg/songs20.cfm and http://www.mikedoughty.com/blog/archives/000117.html
