This song is about a pig that claims to be the second coming of Jesus.
The references to Jesus are very clear, he came a long time ago, he came to save us, he walked on water, he wore sandals, he helped the meek and the blind.
Mad is a real pig as he states he's only 3 feet tall an no trouble to anyone.
Now, what did Freddy metaphorically mean by writing this? I have two interpretations.
Lots of dirty people pretend to be the second coming of Jesus or someone 'somehow devine' to manipulate people, get money, abuse power. So a pig claiming to be the second coming of Jesus could totally represent those fake prophets.
According to the Bible, it was very hard for Jesus to convince people he was the son of God, coming from humble origins a mixing with common people. So what would happen if he came back as a pig? He would still want to save the world and give a message of love but it would be even harder. Specially to claim he's the king of the Jews being a pig, the animal they despise most. He says he loves all God's creatures and we're all the same within he's eyes. A message that God loves everyone even animals, even pigs.
