Elaborating on what a few people have already mentioned - the song - like many of monster magnet's lyrics - are referencing comics specifically, Marvel's Galactus.
For those that don't know, galactus is a massive (like the size of the sun massive) cosmic being that "eats" entire planets for his meals. In the marvel universe galactus often tries to devour the resource-rich planet of earth but somehow or another it's never quite happened (i think- in the main universe at least).
So this song sorta seems like Galactus dreaming about how awesome it will be when he finally consumes the planet of earth. Full of sexual innuendo and more blatant clues as in the chorus:
"now give me the strength to split the wold in two
i ate all the rest and now i've gotta eat you."
pretty much the whole chorus actually. and the song title.
Of course that doesn't mean it's ONLY about Galactus, but it seems to be the main inspiration...
