I've always seen this as the most Satirical of their songs... As Sawyejr said, this is clearly a 'love song to the sun' representing to ideologies of a sun cult (ie the majority of religions) and the lines "don't listen, don't even hear a word they say" symbolises each religion's opinion of other religious teachings
Though, if you take this from a more philosophical POV, if anything should be worshipped it should be the Sun directly. It is the give of light, heat, fuel, power. Star dust provides us with the Carbon, oxygen and heavy metals we need for life. without the sun, life wouldn't have come to exist and wouldn't survive.
