The song is perhaps bleak but I don't think it's Nihilistic and definitely not hedonistic. Case in point, the last line: "We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end. We were fated to pretend."
He's saying that excess and hedonism will catch up to you. Same goes with the lines about models having babies, then divorcing them to marry new models. I think they meant the lyrics to be as over-the-top and absurd as possible. I take it to mean you shouldn't be reckless and rampant like some rockstars but conversely, you shouldn't just sell-out to a boring 9-5 job because you're afraid to pursue your dreams either.
