he's the one doing the breaking up actually, he is comparing himself to hitler throughout the track
WWI and WWII era propaganda (from both sides) and now-obscure pop culture (specifically music related) tidbits are a fairly common point of reference for jim's songs, for... reasons?
He also plays and records every instrument on most of his records (or arranges them, at the very least), which encompasses mastery of the better part of the orchestra's woodwind, brass and percussion sections on top of your standard rock instruments, synths, drum programming, and weird industrial noisemakers and effects units of various sorts. He's like the king of modern big band music, but with a twisted edge.
He went on to compose the soundtrack for The Venture Brothers, among other things.

...
