This song was such a different move for the Clash. I think it very well might have been a 'feel' that Strummer or one of the other members had for a song, and lyrics that were implanted, with varying and unrelated meanings.
"Feel like a soldier, look like a thief." I would think is just how a punk rocker feels/looks. Empowered or motivated against something, but still looks sketchy and isn't trusted.
Anyway, here is a shirt referencing the song, if anyone is interested.
