I think the comments about the song being about the band changing direction are valid.
Has anybody here read the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy books? In that series, porpoises are one of two species who are smarter than human beings, and, just before Earth's destruction, porpoises somehow leave the planet with a last communique that translates to, "So long, and thanks for all the fish."
This song, with the porpoise laughing and saying goodbye, reminds me of that.
One of my fave Monkees songs, to be sure.
