Simply put, this song is rather obviously about evolution. Or rather, de-evolution. "Our tails wagged and then fell off, but we just turned around and marched back to the sea" is referring to when the first organism crawled out of the primordial soup of an ocean. It evolved, eventually becoming thousands of different life forms, including humans. And right now, we have changed beyond natural selection, we are destroying the world and our own race. We are marching back into the sea.
"Treat me like disease / Like the rats & fleas" ; humanity is a plague on the Earth, doing nothing FOR nature but instead intervening in natural ways and ruining them. I don't think it's "forced health". That line actually reads "Give me forests so dead I wish death on myself" which I believe basically sums up Isaac's feelings when he was writing this.
"Well, we all stumbled 'round, tangled up in our cords
From our phones, VCRs, and our worldly woes
A ha ha! March on!"
Tangled in the cords meaning figuratively that we have dug our own graves by creating technology, and it's too far gone to turn back, because we are doomed anyways, so he finishes by saying "March on", keep doing what you're doing because we've lost our chance anyways, and we might as well enjoy the ride on the path we've made leading to the complete annihilation of Earth.
Kind of the same message as from Dashboard; enjoy your ride, everyone. :)
you're retarded. There is no 'phones, VCRs, and out worldly woes" line. but I see where you get the march into the sea part.
but this song is obviously about sex.

@CoughDownOurSleeves reading your theory (which I give a big thumbs up to,very concise and thought provoking) but reading this in 2021, 18 months into a world pandemic is kinda jarring. Although we are finding that truth hasn’t matched into the sea, we all just turned our backs on it…humanity is a plague on the earth. You nailed it
