The protagonist starts the song by saying he must be stuck in a rut. He's considering ridiculous (to him) alternatives to his current way of life, such as finding religion or joining the army. He's so stuck it's like trying to navigate through busy foreign traffic ie he's not getting anywhere.
The reason he feels stuck is probably that his girlfriend has just left him for another bloke ("that punk"). The rest of the song is him sticking the knife into his ex.
"Craving attention with your self-deprecation
I'll tell you one thing:
It's spot on and I'm better"
Wonderful - her self deprecation, although not sincere to her, the protagonist feels is accurate and he's better. A great, bitchy song.
