According to the Last of the American Girls Songfacts, one of the inspirations for this Pop-Punk number was the time vocalist Billie Joe Armstrong spent in New Orleans helping build houses for those made homeless by Hurricane Katrina.

It adds those elements to one character who has this left wing strength."
