This is about some kid talking to Maynard about Undertow. The kid, declaring himself a true Tool fan (OGT - Original Gangsta Tool) apparently called MJK a sellout for releasing Undertow, a major label record. Maynard turns his words around into the chorus that says, "We all participate in capitalism, so by saying you don't like it, you're being hypocritical." He goes on to say that the kid knows nothing about him except for what Maynard lets him know, so he's in no position to tell him how to live. Just invest in Tool and your soul is safe.
Actually...when asked about Hooker with a Penis...the song is NOT ABOUT a specific converstaion with a Tool fan...its an imaginary converstaion Maynard is having based on his own artisitic fear that with Tool's monetary success...that people..their fans...will believe they have sold out...I bet anyone who has heard that song has though twice about confronting Maynard that they have sold out

Actually... he was talking to me about it. I told him Tool sucks and that his mom probably liked sticking carrots up his ass as a kid and he got all mad. But he also said he'd write me a song.

It also has ties to the original bass player(Paul D'Amour) leaving. In an interview, Maynard said that Paul suffered from "indie guilt" and didn't want the band getting any bigger than it already was from Undertow.
