Some claim this song is evidence of conservative/right-wing leanings of the band due to the 'liberal scum' lyric, yet isn't it more likely they're criticising from a left-wing perspective? Those on the Left are quite frequently in coalitions of sorts with liberals (e.g. The Democratic Party), and there's a long history of antagonism between the two factions.
To me, it seems like the band are stating a desire to look out for working-class rights by taking the 'front seat', thus not allowing the liberals to make compromises.
