First, a lyric correction:
"We'll start with that new future super star" is actually "superstore" not super star.
Now, the meaning:
Jason Lytle hates Modesto, CA - the bands hometown. He wanted to leave for a long time, and wrote a lot of songs inspired by his general hatred/desdain for the town. Valley Fudge refers to the ignorance of the city. Fudge is a metaphor for the people and lifestyle they lead. Most of them being wal-mart dwelling ignorant fatsos that are brainwashed by television. The song is about tearing the city apart, and "fuck the man" that represents the shittyness of the valley of Modesto.
Forgot to add: The leafblower as described in the lyrics is a lawnmower. Modesto valley -> suburbia. Jason really hated the suburian sprawl of the city on top of the other stuff I described. My info is pulled from a few interviews about the album.
