Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
Everybody knows the truth
Everybody sees right through
There's no escape in what you do, do to me, do to me
I swear that you're just sinking in
Like a stain that's on my skin
I tried to fight but I won't win
Anyhow it's too late for me now 'cause
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn but I like it yeah
I'm on autopilot, heading for the sun
I don't want what's good for me, I don't need a remedy
No one's gonna rescue me from myself
I don't care if it hurts my eyes
I stare until I'm going blind
You can hate me I don't mind anymore
'Cause I know you're the cure and
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn but I like it, yeah
I'm on autopilot, heading for the sun
For the sun, for the sun, for the sun
And I'm addicted, I can't break free, I won't resist it
So don't make move out from the afterglow
Your love's like ultraviolet
Your love's like ultraviolet
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn but I like it, yeah
I'm on autopilot, heading for the sun
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn but I like it, yeah
I'm on autopilot, heading for the sun
Heading for the sun
Heading for the sun
Heading for the sun
Everybody sees right through
There's no escape in what you do, do to me, do to me
I swear that you're just sinking in
Like a stain that's on my skin
I tried to fight but I won't win
Anyhow it's too late for me now 'cause
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn but I like it yeah
I'm on autopilot, heading for the sun
I don't want what's good for me, I don't need a remedy
No one's gonna rescue me from myself
I don't care if it hurts my eyes
I stare until I'm going blind
You can hate me I don't mind anymore
'Cause I know you're the cure and
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn but I like it, yeah
I'm on autopilot, heading for the sun
For the sun, for the sun, for the sun
And I'm addicted, I can't break free, I won't resist it
So don't make move out from the afterglow
Your love's like ultraviolet
Your love's like ultraviolet
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn but I like it, yeah
I'm on autopilot, heading for the sun
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn but I like it, yeah
I'm on autopilot, heading for the sun
Heading for the sun
Heading for the sun
Heading for the sun

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.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
wow, im surprised im the first to post a comment about this song, I'M ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE WITH IT!! the whole metaphor of the song is about the sun "ultraviolet" refer to uv rays... simply it's about how she is so in love with someone and enjoying it, doesnt give a damn if it is damaging her cause she is IN LOVE: "i can feel it [the sun] burn but i like it" ... and "I don't care if it hurts my eyes..I stare until I'm going blind" prove my point... EXCELLENT SONG!
I love this song :) ... She's talking about loving someone's love, obviously.
What this song is great why rnt there more comments?! i love it !I can relate to the lyrics like "likeing so much you just cant stop thinking about them" these lyrics hit the spot!!!
Everybody knows the truth Everybody sees right through There's no escape in what you do, do to me, do to me I swear that you're just sinking in Like a stain that's on my skin I tried to fight but I won't win Anyhow it's too late for me now 'cause
i hope to have ultra violet love=P
HER BEST SONG! And yes I've heard them ALL and have them ALL but this one still is, and always will be, her very best. Her voice sounds so gorgeous and passionate in it and the idea that this love so strong it's like ultraviolet rays is just so sweet. =D
I think ...
it's about loving someone who's probably a 'bad guy' but she doesn't care, she still loves him. And uses metaphors for the sun and UV light, which is bad for skin.
