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.
Tonight I suggest wearing your best dress
And when we show up their gonna be so jealous
tonight I think I'm gonna make a scene of your scene
becuase their full of appologies
an everybody in the party will still be up dancing
an your gonna hate me
if things get any worse
I would consider making all new best friends
if this scenes better then girl I wouldnt be caught dead in that dress
So we wrote this song so you know your not invited
cause the party is on and you could sit at home in silence
don't even ask us your not comming in
an oh yeah the party is on yeah but dont get to excited
see I've got this plan to make the girls dance
an a pretty good idea how to make them drop their
An tonight I think I'm falling asleep in the backseat
After party well thats all me
I'm dialing every single number I swear I would never dial
an you can't stop me
If things get any worse
I would consider making all new best friends
And start a new band in a new land where the kids know how to dance
So we wrote this song so you know your not invited
cause the party is on and you could sit at home in silence
Dont even ask us your not comming in
an oh yeah the party is on yeah but dont get to excited
We been drinking since we started
but I can't remember when
and got replaced with memories that we just can't forget
your in love
were loving
we are not right in our heads
We have girlfriends in cities
that we have never been
until we come back again
Okay
So we wrote this song so you know your not invited
cause the party is on and you could sit at home in silence
dont even ask us your not comming in (dont even ask your not comming in)
oh yeah the party is on yeah but dont get to excited
We said it a thousand times
[?]
so get on with your lives
we got so many better things to do right now
than to be wasting our time
We said it a thousand times
[?]
so fed up with you
we got so many other things to do
drinking
We can't remember when
We been drinking since we started
but I can't remember when
and got replaced with memories that we just can't forget
your in love
were loving
we are not right in our heads
We have girlfriends in cities that we have never been

No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
