Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
I wish I knew the secret of success
Then I could laugh about it, I could say I couldn't care less
I don't want to wait for the dinner plate (No Way)
Is there any hope for the record plate (Today)
I don't see no sign, I don't see no sign
I just got to get out there and find the thing and make it mine
Can you see her?
Can you see her?
I can see her by the water, looks like someone's daughter
I just want to be with her and talk about it
Oh, here it comes again that old feeling
I've had since I don't know when, don't ask me to explain, no
I'm no different, I'm the same, yes
There was once a time when I knew how to (Do Things)
I just don't care, very debonair (No Strings)
I've had lesson one, I've had lesson one
If you get half of what you want out of this life , you're lucky son
Can you see her?
Can you see her?
I can see her by the water, looks like someone's daughter
I just want to be with her and talk about it
Here she comes.
Can you see her?
Can you see her?
Can you see her?
Can you see her?
I can see her by the water, looks like someone's daughter
I just want to be with her and talk about it I can see her by the water side, looks like someone's daughter
I just want to be with her and talk about it... Yes.
Then I could laugh about it, I could say I couldn't care less
I don't want to wait for the dinner plate (No Way)
Is there any hope for the record plate (Today)
I don't see no sign, I don't see no sign
I just got to get out there and find the thing and make it mine
Can you see her?
Can you see her?
I can see her by the water, looks like someone's daughter
I just want to be with her and talk about it
Oh, here it comes again that old feeling
I've had since I don't know when, don't ask me to explain, no
I'm no different, I'm the same, yes
There was once a time when I knew how to (Do Things)
I just don't care, very debonair (No Strings)
I've had lesson one, I've had lesson one
If you get half of what you want out of this life , you're lucky son
Can you see her?
Can you see her?
I can see her by the water, looks like someone's daughter
I just want to be with her and talk about it
Here she comes.
Can you see her?
Can you see her?
Can you see her?
Can you see her?
I can see her by the water, looks like someone's daughter
I just want to be with her and talk about it I can see her by the water side, looks like someone's daughter
I just want to be with her and talk about it... Yes.

Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
