Fools! It's basically their song that says how disgusted they are with the rest of the human race; how corrupt everyone is deep down - But in a first person, sarcastic tone.

The day he "tried to live" is the day that Chris decided he would try to fit in with everyone else; and by doing so, he gave up all moral integrity for the purpose of just getting along and doing well, unfortunately.
@sommy absolutely right! Living in the modern world requires you to lower your moral standards and wallow in the "blood and mud" with all the other pigs. It's a great song about the inner struggle as a person may want to be proactive and do the right thing, but in order to be part of society they have to take part in what society does, even the morally questionable things.
