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.
Thunder and metal are shaking the ground
The warlord is calling your name
Fight for your glory, and fight for your king
Into the battlezone, fight for the ring
Brothers of metal, stand up for your rights
Prepare yourself for an endless fight
Living in fear ain't living to us
Sway your sword high, like Jack the Muzz
Oh....the revelation comes
Provide us with thunder
Steel to steel
Steel to steel
Hold your hammer high
Steel to steel
Steel to steel
The gods are waiting in the sky
From the battle we come to the battle we ride
High and mighty we stand
We ride like thunder, we are punishment and pain
The weak ones bleeding in the rain
The warlord is calling your name
Fight for your glory, and fight for your king
Into the battlezone, fight for the ring
Brothers of metal, stand up for your rights
Prepare yourself for an endless fight
Living in fear ain't living to us
Sway your sword high, like Jack the Muzz
Oh....the revelation comes
Provide us with thunder
Steel to steel
Steel to steel
Hold your hammer high
Steel to steel
Steel to steel
The gods are waiting in the sky
From the battle we come to the battle we ride
High and mighty we stand
We ride like thunder, we are punishment and pain
The weak ones bleeding in the rain

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.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
