Cover art for Mr. Clean lyrics by Jam, The

I think this is about "yuppies" which were working class boys who made it big in the city and those who forget thier roots-- when he says "please dont forget me or any of my kind" and "you miss page three-but the times is right for you" his talking about when they used to read page three of "The Sun" which is working class paper and now reads "The times" which is like middle class broadsheet

more importantly page 3 is soft porn and the times is a serious paper

this song was written a few years before the yuppie came in to being I think, also how many working class people back in the late 70s went to cambridge? its about his loathing of the middle class not a working class lad come good
