Certainly references dehumanization, alienation, etc., but (along with "Have a Cigar") is SPECIFICALLY about the band's experience with the avarice and cluelessness of the record industry. Sort of a bite-the-hand-that-feeds-you song.
At least "Wish" and "Shine On" were fairly kind and compassionate songs -- about the last of those Waters ever wrote before his bitter, cynical side took over.
