I think this song is about the expectations of life, and the failure of those expectations to be met. Mostly expectations derived from the words and promises of other people.
God called for rain, so the person built an ark, but nothing came.
Someone called for war, so the person joined the core, and wasnt sure of the cause.
A dove called for land, but no land was there.
I feel after all these failed expectations the man is left to ponder what is the meaning of life? Unfortunately, I think Dr. Dog's answer, at least in this song, is that there really is no great meaning. The meaning of life is that you are here and must make what you can from it. "Well I know cause I can and I will"
An amazing song, that sounds like it could have come off the Beatles White Album.
