this song was actually written by joe strummer, he was writing for mick jones' perspective, imagining what it was like to live his childhood and all that.
This song was written by Mick Jones for Joe Strummer (this has been firmly established by many sources and interviews throughout the years).
It is a song about the constant struggle between mass-consumerism and self-identity that we as humans deal with everyday between those two volitle poles. It can be extremely hard to find your own "personality" when you are constantly contradicted and junxtaposed by our cultural standards and enviromental happenings.
Metaphoric? Definately.
Classic Song from a Classic Band? You better believe it.
