Somehow, I don't think this is about Jesus coming back. (My Christian belief would say that he's got no need to be reincarnated, as he isn't dead.) I always thought this was about some guy who THINKS he's some hero who's destined to save the world or something. And then he kinda goes off and starts talking about all the things he's done/can do. Except really, people think he's more or less crazy. Hence he's MAD (crazy) and - I'm not sure about the Swine part, but possibly it's because nobody much cares about him, hence he means about as much as a Swine to them? (This is, of course, assuming that pigs don't mean a lot to most people.)

Anyway, it's a cool song.
