I think this song is based on the day in the life of an ordinary person with an ordinary job who realises everything he has been striving for or lives for is overrated. I think it's Damon's way of saying how what the majority of people in the UK "supposedly want", i.e a white collar job, a nice house and maybe a nice car is overrated.
