This is what I THOUGHT the song was about, before you shattered my illusions:
non-dairy creamer: vegan
fruit cake: mental person who eats fruit (i.e. someone who is crazy to be a vegan)
wet-spot: who'd been laid out (for being a vegan) and was bleeding copiously
new church: crazy vegan religion
they have a tequila; she shows him vegans are cool
this one's on the house (talking about alcohol)
after becoming a vegan, he wanders back one day into a meat-eater's house. The meat-eater has a wider experience of things (hence king everything) and invites him to eat meat with him, in the form of pies and chicken.
He does eat the meat; (hence 'recovery') and the experience leaves him bitter and cynical, turning him into the person who beat up the vegan in the first place.
So it reads like a witty piece of social commentary. 'Should we beat vegans?' Robert Pollard asks ironically, if they drink alcohol. Furthermore, was the protagonist right to join veganism just because they also drink alcohol?

But no, it's a song ABOUT FUCKING BLOW JOBS.
