This brilliant song, for anyone that struggles with literary interpretation, is basically a juxtaposition of childhood innocence, the careless attitude towards mass civilian deaths overseas caused by Western imperialism, and the monetization of those strategies by those in power, to illustrate the psychotic and fractured nature of Western psychology in regard to Western responsibility for atrocities and global conflict.
