Love this song, the Housemartins were brilliant. I think this song is about the rat race in London in the 80s with launch of the City Yuppies on the Stock Exchange. Living the high life, high pace, highly paid, all Green for Go. I doubt Paul Heaton being a northern lad would have liked this new generation of human being, not the everyday working class.
