I believe that this song is about capitalism. Jade represents not only money buy also greed for it.
She runs through the valley of death and of sleeping
She laughs as she dances her feet wake the flowers
She comes up now running through our gloomy town
Yes, Jade is the girl of the hour
Money has just entered the town.
We can't help but follow, she's Buddha just watch her
She moves like an old gypsy woman but swears she's a girl
And all that she asks we will allow her
For Jade is the girl of the hour
Talking about how they can't help but use the money as they see it bringing supposed happiness with it. The lines about old gypsy woman but swears she's a girl is a reference to new money versus old money.
It is her hour so let it be hers
Find it and shine it and wind it always
It is her hour so let it be hers
Yes, Jade is the girl of the hour
I think this is about the continuation of the greed. Also, the fact that she is the girl of the hour I believe refers to hourly wages.
The people in town now just wake up to see her
For when she smiles they all feel the power
The strong men, the children, and even the cowards
No, Jade is the girl of the hour
This is talking about peoples motivation, now they are waking up for the money alone. When they have a lot of money or "when she smiles" everyone weak or strong becomes more powerful
And you won't soon forget the name
Saying that capitalism won't go away anytime soon.
