Mosesandliverbeans is right, the inspiration of this song mainly comes from a t-shirt Flea bought for AK while in Amsterdam. I think the red star and black fist is some sort of Soviet symbol (Maybe) or just something that is symbolic of organisation, buckling down, living withn the rules - which was characteristics of the Soviet Union anyways. In Scar Tissue, AK says that when they got the record deal he just wanted to "buckle down" and get the record out, maybe that was inspiration too.
