It's about exactly what the title says: killing god.
The first lyric is "In the Beginning," an obvious reference to Genesis (the book of the bible, not the band!)
A couple of times they refer to the target with paternal words ("daddy", "poppie") meaning God the Father.
"Slinky redfoot" is satan.
Also, the theme of the entire album (Everything Must Go) is ending, so what better topic than the end of history?
