"Rockefeller" always has connotations of blood money for me.
"The city's ours until the fall" brings Fight Club to mind.
"We know very well who we are, so we hold it down when summer starts" alludes IMO to how a lot of Americans deny how insecure they really are as leftists (read the unabomber manifesto). Also, how we thrive on coffee during the weekday, and beer on the weekend, and we're so hyped for friday and hungover on monday that we really only have three productive workdays a week.
"What kind of dough have you been spending/what kind of bubblegum have you been blowing lately?" seems to be saying that spending the dough is blowing your money, i.e. bubblegum is a waste of money, a lot of our consumerism is a waste of money.
I think hourly workers often forget that every eight dollars or so they spend is about an hour of gritting their way through work. I think they often forget to compare the quality of life lost by going to work with the effect their purchase has on their quality of life.
