According to the bonus DVD on The Young Knives' album 'Voices of Animals and Men' this song was influenced by a box of chocolates.
Apparently there was a box of Cadbury's Temptations was in the kitchen when writing this song. The original lyrics were:
"In the kitchen there was a box of temptations"
Over a period of time it ended up being "Kitchener was a temptation" which fits in better. Also, instead of the guitar solo, it was just the band shouting out the names of the different chocolates instead.
