I don’t think it’s about 9/11. It’s more about the power of time than it is about anything else. It is a beautifully stated song. “When the house was standing…you’d never have believed it..” Haven’t we all tried to describe something like that?
I think the song also functions as a song that bashes people who sell you on the future. Palm readers and preachers. Not really an angry song though. That’s just not Cake’s style.
