First of all no Pink Floyd song with ever belong to a porno, no matter how classy it is.
Second of all I think that the DSOTM cd is about how unnatural our world and society has become from what we, as humans, truly want. We subconsciously want an environment where we can be free and creative and compassionate and conscious. But all our high-strung, selfish world pushes for is brutish energy directed onto a straight path leading to "success" and "happiness" (really just wealth and vain satisfaction) The things that drive us towards this are worrying about time, our death, money, etc. The second song isn't called "on the run" for no reason. Our world has got us all on the run in an environment that basically sucks.
So, that being said, I think that this song could be about the illusion that we are happy (this kind of idea has been talked about already). I think Waters might be trying to say that as long as our world is the way it is we cant ever be truly happy.
This could be why the guy at the end of eclipse says "you know there really is no dark side of the moon...in fact its all dark". The dark side represents insanity and, well, if its all dark then its inevitable that we'll all go insane trapped in this world.
Umm sorry if that doesnt exactly tie into this song. I think its a general DSOTM idea.
