They point and say/ we'll keep em in the back/ polishing halos/ building manna and gas---
I agree with most of what the board has come to a consesus on....but check that line out.
Manna was the "food" that God dropped to the hundreds of thousands of Jews that were following Moses out of Eqypt. The story goes that for 40 years these people wandered a desert and how did hundreds of thousands of people find enough food? God..of course! Maybe he should have dropped a map at some point too, but hindsight is 20/20 and so that is what baking manna would be for.
Baking Gas might not make sense, until you realize that fossil fuels are mostly dead dinosaurs. Alot of hardcore christians dont believe in dinosaurs, and why would they, there is no mention of them in the bible. So how do we get gas without dinosaurs...Isaac has to bake it with the rest of the atheists in heaven.
God Damn that guy can write a song! That is one frickin line, one verse! He is a caveman in a spaceship!
The man who moves carefree and smells like Listerine, and he is God/Jesus....and he is too busy having a good time to answer your calls....and his secret to you is to take care of yourself.
The "and you of you" thing supports this idea as in people need food and in today's world people think they need gas to the point to where we've become dependent on it so for all practical purposes we do "need" it* so since atheists ("humans") are actually in heaven baking the manna and the gas for the humans on earth (I assume that's where it goes), it is actually "you" (the humans in heaven) taking care of "you" (the humans on earth) with god not playing a role.

This song is a clear example of why I love Modest Mouse.

Baking mana and gas could just refer to working forever.
