My idea of what this song is about is pretty basic: I think the old dog and the young dog are both politicians, and despite our hopes that the young dog might change things or the old dog temper the young one, "we'll all get wet" as they sell us out for money.
They're all too busy "singing 'bone sweet bone'" and admitting that "money's never wrong" to want to or maybe to be able to change anything.
Okay, I added lyrics.
