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.
I love my baby you know that's true
There's not a damn thing for the woman that I wouldn't do
She can't get enough
She don't know when to say when
When we get done doing it she wants to do it again
She wants her cake she wants to eat it too
She wants to do the hoochie coochie the whole night through
Looks like an angel but she's a devil in disguise
I got to run for cover when she looks in my eyes
I love my baby you know that's true
There's not a damn thing for the woman that I wouldn't do
She can't get enough
She don't know when to say when
When we get done doing it she wants to do it again
She's strong as steel she's smoother than glass
She went and broke my love bone right in half
She makes me feel much better than all right
But I just can't get enough sleep at night
I love my baby you know that's true
There's not a damn thing for the woman that I wouldn't do
She can't get enough
She don't know when to say when
When we get done doing it she wants to do it again
She's like a fire burning out of control
All she wants to do is just rock and roll
She's sweet as honey form the honey comb
But she's busy as a bee when we're all alone
I love my baby you know that's true
There's not a damn thing for the woman that I wouldn't do
She can't get enough
She don't know when to say when
When we get done doing it she wants to do it again
There's not a damn thing for the woman that I wouldn't do
She can't get enough
She don't know when to say when
When we get done doing it she wants to do it again
She wants her cake she wants to eat it too
She wants to do the hoochie coochie the whole night through
Looks like an angel but she's a devil in disguise
I got to run for cover when she looks in my eyes
I love my baby you know that's true
There's not a damn thing for the woman that I wouldn't do
She can't get enough
She don't know when to say when
When we get done doing it she wants to do it again
She's strong as steel she's smoother than glass
She went and broke my love bone right in half
She makes me feel much better than all right
But I just can't get enough sleep at night
I love my baby you know that's true
There's not a damn thing for the woman that I wouldn't do
She can't get enough
She don't know when to say when
When we get done doing it she wants to do it again
She's like a fire burning out of control
All she wants to do is just rock and roll
She's sweet as honey form the honey comb
But she's busy as a bee when we're all alone
I love my baby you know that's true
There's not a damn thing for the woman that I wouldn't do
She can't get enough
She don't know when to say when
When we get done doing it she wants to do it again

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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”

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
