2+2=5 is a reference that people can be made to believe anything even when the truth is clear. Because of this, some will use this to their advantage to control people. The song is about exploitation of people by those in control through mind control and how people are oblivious to what is going on even when it is very obvious.
Are you such a dreamer
To put the world to rights?
I stay home forever
Where two and two always makes a five
A reference to not questioning the common thought, staying home and staying brainwashed instead of stepping outside of ones comfort zone and questioning what they are being told to believe.
I'll lay down the tracks
Sandbag and hide
January has April's showers
And two and two always makes a five
A reference to the people working for a caused because they were sold a concept that was not true. They do the bidding and work of those in control which is ultimately leading to their demise.
It's the devil's way now
There is no way out
You can scream and you can shout
It is too late now
It's too late, once you realize that you've been lied to and the world becomes a corrupt place it's too late. It's so obvious in hindsight but the people did not notice because they were not..... paying attention
The very last line, go tell the king that the sky is falling... but maybe it's not.. shows that even when disaster is clear people are still blind to the truth because the reality that exists in their mind is difficult to change after believing in something so much. They are the victim of someone planting a clearly false idea/concept in their head and they struggle to re-invent their reality.

Exactly. It's amazing how many people are oblivious.

Initially that's not what I thought this song was about at all. But after reading this I see the interpretation. I commend you on this. Great post.

@justin37013 I think you got the facts all right but the meaning is very warped.
