Don't take these lyrics at face value. First, a list of the heavy woes of life, then the simple tongue-in-cheek solution: Listen to my band. “Wilco will love you” is making a promise the singer can’t possibly keep. He knows it, and he knows you know he knows it. He's saying, sorry, I can't really help you. The message of the song is a joke, the title of the song is a joke, the title of the album is a joke, and even the name of the band is a joke: “Wilco” in aviation slang means “will comply,” a funny name for any rock band, especially one that pushes the envelope like....Wilco. And yet they’re also serious.
'Wilco' isn't aviation slang. It's standard brevity code for aeronautics. 'Wilco' actually stands for 'I have heard and understood my orders, and will comply.' The definition you put would actually describe 'Roger.'
