Cover art for Jesus Does the Dishes lyrics by Wingnut Dishwashers Union

as I understand it, a simple assesment, it's about taking responsibility for your actions and standing up for what you believe in. about sorting our inner selves to know what we want to see in the world.

It's also politically metaphorical, though. Like about independence from the government--the reality that once the government is gone, we'll be the ones responsible for so many things we take for granted, like maintaining roads, defending ourselves, etc.

I agree with that analysis for the first paragraph. What about the second one, though? I'd love to offer my own interpretation of it, but I don't have one, haha.
