I don't think that it is a quesion of either or. I think this song shows the temptation of partying outside and it definitely feels like the person singing is outside on a Saturday/Friday night. The rythm definitely and the way the words are spoken convey the way the man consumes coccaine and alcohol and then there is a bit halway through where there is a tranquil noise and this could be showing how all this consumption only leads up to a little bit of peace.
I would also point out how this is another song that have cropped up in Blur albums before, which are short and punchy, such as 'Bank Holiday' and 'We've got a file on you'
Also I have just heard on BBC radio 1 an interview with Damon on this album, 'Demon Days', and he says that the album is like a conversation with Demons until the last song, also called 'Demon Days', which is the coming out of this nightmare or whereever this meeting is occuring.
