This song is pure poetry, I love the symbolism in it and I agree that probably the contest in which was written was of political or social turmoil. I love the last line, my personal interpretation is that as they were trying to change the system that was there before them, things began to become difficult (the wind began to howl).
@birba.mozz I don't think it has to do with politics or social turmoil but more with religion because based on the songthe Joker says",Businessmen, they drink my wine, Plowmen dig my earth. None of them along the line know what any of it is worth". The Joker speaks as if he owns the entire earth, therefore he must be a God. He is trying to say that people just take but don't acknowledge what he gives to the people.

@birba.mozz I don't think it's talking about the system, it is talking about Jesus. The joker is symbolizing Jesus and the thief can be symbolizing us humans. The joker claims that humans take from him by saying "they drink my wine" and "dig my earth" . Eventually the thief says that they should stop "talking falsely" because it's no joking matter and in all truths we can joke about life and see it as a joke but at the end of the day god has the last word when it comes to judging day and that is if you believe...
