Is the line "God is dead, God is dead" somehow a reference to Nietzsche?

I don't know if Nietzsche ever visited Illinois, but... well that's what I think of (only because I'm taking a course in him now).

Interesting connection, just out of the blue though, Nietzsche was the philosopher mentioned in Little Miss Sunshine....the movie that made Sufjan's "Chicago" more popular. Sorry, I can't help but get excited by silly coincidences that mean nothing.
