I think this song is fantastic especially because of the message it carries:
To me this song is about how our society revolves around greed and how in general people strive for more or 'want' endlessly. Basically that society is materialistic.
The point of the song though, is that the voice or character in the song has realized the flaw in this. That more isn't always better, that there is not even correlation between 'getting' and happiness, or fulfillment.
I love the chorus, how it is so witty pointing out that without the singer buying into this mindset, that society would be lonely as 'it' can't have it all. Its insinuated that this mindset of course is ironic to the fact that without the singer, 'it' or society as a character wouldn't be better off.
