To me it is about how Fd up society is, filled with greed and people taking advantage of those just trying to get by.
Some guy looking at what how he is taking advantage of people to gain and knows damned well it is wrong:
"Jimmy's in the back with a pocket of high
If you listen close
You can hear him cry
Oh, lord, heaven knows
We belong way down below
Sing it
Oh, lord, heaven knows
We belong way down below
Way down below, way down below"
Hooker doing crap she hates because she doesn't see options:
"Judy's in the front seat picking up trash
Living on the dough
Gotta make that cash
Won't be pretty
Won't be sweet
She's just sittin' there on her feet"
Saying everything is just crap and it gets worse:
"I've had better days, man
I've seen better days
I've had better ways, man
I know better ways"
God would be judging all of this, and not approving
"Oh, lord, heaven knows
We belong way down below"
seems like each part of the song seems to fit this mold.
