Svamp = mushroom. (Zwamp is just a silly alternative spelling). In the lyrics, they're mentioning a number of specific mushrooms, including champignon (Agaricus).

No, they are not talking about getting high on mushrooms. It's about not liking the modern city life and wanting to live in a mushroom instead. Not taking mushrooms. The lyrics are very easy to understand for children. They're just silly. This is not the original video. Just a collection of clips someone put together. Some of the clips fit isolated words in the lyrics, but juding from your reaction, they obviously don't do justice to the content. The video gives the song a completely unapt psychadelic impression.

Several Swedish TV-program for children through the last 50 years has been made by the most creative and skilful people. Lasse Åberg, artist, preformer, moviemaker, designer etc. is the tall guy. The "zebra" man is one of Swedens most experienced studio muscians, Janne Schaffer. The best hit song from the childrens program was "Banankontakt", loved by children and adults. George Riedel, great jazz musician, wrote much of the music to movies/series based on Astrid Lindgren's stories. The music to Pippi Longstocking was however written by another great Swedish jazz musician, Jan Johansson. Check his jazz version of the traditional folk song "Visa fran Utanmyra". He died 1968 in a car accident. The connection between mushrooms and drugs in Sweden is weak. Mushrooms in Sweden, especially for children, is more connected with walk in the forest with the family, collect mushrooms, have the mushrooms in the dinner.
