Nobody commented on this yet? In my view the finest BS song of all. I think Heaton is pointing out the injustice of ordinary people working hard all their lives under capitalism, to be rewarded with nothing.
When I hear it I think of all the people who have voted Labour throughout their lives, Holding On to the dream that eventually things are going to improve for everyone, and then Gordon Brown comes along and raises the retirement age to 150 and steals everyone's pension.
Also a dig at prostitution and the British army, and the line about Chamberlain and Jesus is too brilliant for words!
