I think this song is from the view of someone whose view of religion clouds a realistic view of the world, causing them to be judgmental and not seeing the value in certain people's great achievements, like Einstein, Shakespeare, Charlie Parker, etc. They miss the real glory and beauty of people on Earth in being so focused on the afterlife, and they take every blessing they receive on Earth for granted, not realizing that they are already in heaven.
@th1nk4y0urself In a 2004 concert Thompson said it was "a Taliban's eye view of the Western world". But I still have no idea what "the misery cord" that those grey pious people are kneeling on is. The Muslims I've asked have no clue either.

@th1nk4y0urself A misericord is a ledge projecting from the underside of a hinged seat in a choir stall which, when the seat is turned up, gives support to someone standing. Basically RT is making a play on words. The song is satirising the blinkered viewpoints of extremists of all kinds.
