I think this song is about being kept down by a system the puts you in a certain place. With time passing by, you will not think about the deficiencies of the system as such, but you are concerned about your job in fulfilling the expectations of others. The last part
Help me spread right, ash is
Cow-fertilized
Come down in a feed town
Strength to minimize
seems to me about resignation. You see the system, but you can not fight against it. All you do is in the same direction as the others that can't see. You keep your frustration to yourself.
I don't know if the lyrics mean anything, but what you're talking about sounds like what I hear in the tone and structure of the song, especially the resignation. neat.

@ukirsche Given the lyricist grew up in a small 'redneck' midwestern town it makes sense it would have an air of resignation to it. The late 80's were the beginning of a long, slow slide to US mediocrity.
