They Killed Spiderman

Usual dead night in the Bronx
In the club they're playing a blues piece by the Stones
Shady individuals in the bar's balconi
Filled with whiskey and margaritas
 
All of a sudden, the door goes "slam"!
The squinter/one-eyed man enters with news
It's a reliable whisper that
The cannons have gone "bang"!
 
They killed Spiderman
No one knows who did it
Maybe someone from the bad part of town
Maybe the advertisers
They killed Spiderman
No one even knows why
He must have done wrong
To some coffee industry
 
At the police station
The chief says what's the big deal?
What has happened won't stop us
Crime won't win
 
But there's panic in the streets
No one leaves their house
No one wants trouble
And to all the appeals for calm on the TV
Who believes anymore?
 
They killed Spiderman
No one knows who did it
Maybe someone from the bad part of town
Maybe the advertisers
They killed Spiderman
No one even knows why
He must had done wrong
To some coffee industry
 
Down in the streets gangs can be seen
Made up of stressed accountants in double breasted suits
If I don't sell you out, you'll sell me out
For a few bucks or maybe more
 
The faces of Vogue are legends to us
Too-beautiful actors are out only heroes
But him
Yes, he was a star
But he won't come back
 
They killed Spiderman
No one knows who did it
Maybe someone from the bad part of town
Maybe the advertisers
They killed Spiderman
No one even knows why
He must have done wrong
To some coffee industry
 
They killed Spiderman
No one knows who did it
Maybe someone from the bad part of town
Maybe the advertisers
They killed Spiderman
No one even knows why
He must have done wrong
To some coffee industry

Is killing Spider-Man meant to be literal? Like they actually killed him and the city just went to shit?
And what does it mean?

Hi, I know I'm like one year late but anyway.
Yes, they describe the literal death of Spider-Man. "they actually killed him and the city just went to shit" seems like a perfect synopsis of what the song is literally about. Of course, it's all a metaphor: I'd say, something along the lines of Spider-Man representing justice and bravery back in the simpler days, while in the present (that would be the 90s, but it probably still applies) all that' good is gone and we have no role model, no hero to follow (see the last verse). It's pretty heavy handed, but the 883 were not exactly famous for subtlety. Oh, and the bit about the "coffee industry" has no real meaning in case you were wondering, they pretty much just needed a rhyme in "è".
