I really like the song but I don't have a clue what it's really about. People not using their talents?

"When in Rome, do as the Romans." Do whatever it takes just to fit in. No one wants the cure from the doctor, no one wants to learn from the teacher, and dead men aren't at home even when they're dead, because they were never at home when they were alive.

i believe this song means that you should follow your own path and be an individual, rather than fit in for the sake of fitting in.

"a specialist came to town but he stays at home
saying no one knows so i don't honey when in rome"

my favorite part of the song is:

"where can a dead mand go
a question with an answer only dead men know
but i'm gonna bet they never really feel at home
if they spent a lifetime learning how to live in rome"

it means that if you spend a lifetime learning how to live according to other people's beliefs, you will never feel at home because you are not following your own path and building your own set of values and beliefs.
