This is my favorite Soundgarden song, and i am a HUGE HUGE fan. This never really is talked about at all, especially when seeing the comments so few on so many of the best soundgarden songs.
I honestly have tried so hard to understand this song, but I can't. My best guess is that it is about just changing things. The slaves hanging the owners, the patients STOP getting surgery. Think about hollywood and how many people give up their hearts and pride just to look beautiful. "Feel the air now, stumbling and wander in the moonshine" basically is saying now that you've had surgery, feel the changes, can you live with it?

When the switch is on, things change.
