I think it's true that killing birds is a metaphor for ideas that were pushed on cornell as a child. I think he saying that if you force ideas on someone you cannot count on the idea that they won't use them on you as well. How when you train someone to do something it is no longer a choice it's just second nature. "Well I'm just doin my job" shows that there is no feeling just doing what has been pushed on him. Great song, one of my favorite off the album
