I hadn't heard that song before. I don't like it, to be truthful, but I can see why you've posted it here.
Was it based on somebody they knew? I'm not sure people with Down's Syndrome can go unnoticed, can they? Maybe I'm wrong and ignorant.
Would it explain Mechanic?

No, it's metaphorical for how society and science labels people, yet if that same person is in a different setting they may appear normal.
Mechanic is a union machinist. He's probably one of the top earners here. He said he makes over 100k and he's too dumb to tell a convincing lie. Lol. I knew he wasn't making it up.
But Mechanic with all due respect may be a good example.

Ok, makes sense now. I guess I took the lyrics to be literal.
Would anybody be able to write a song like that today? The modern world is taking us backwards.

If you have Down's Syndrome, you're screwed and can't go unnoticed.
However, there's a related condition called Trisomy 21 and it's like Downs but people can go undetected. So that's possible.
However, if you don't take it literally, the song has more meaning. -

I said you're too dumb to tell a lie. It was a joke. But you aren't shrewd and conniving like some people. You're folks.
The Mongoloid had a job and wore a hat. The hat is important. It was funny that FFS mentioned you.
