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.
La la la la la la la la la Luciëlla
La la la la la la la la la Luciëlla
Eva K. sent a letter
And Trishy was untrue
Tamara I couldn't get her
At Michael's saw Luciëlla I was through!
Oh help me I'm about to cry
Won't do the things I want you to (all of the time)
Oh help me I'm about to cry
Ciëlla you and me
It's something that could never be
Ciëlla me and you
It's something that never could be true
Scaraboushka, orgy porgy's lonely too
Scaraboushka, too odd and way too weird for you
Scarabouska, fluffy back and a peachy plum
Scaraboushka, my Kim has to to call you mom
Luciëlla I'm your groom
Tere never existed
Colinda's something new
And Debby's like my sister
Luciëlla so I want to marry you
Oh help me I'm about to cry
Won't do the things I want you to (all of the time)
Oh help me I'm about to cry
Ciëlla you and me
It's something that could never be
Ciëlla me and you
It's something that never could be true
Scaraboushka, orgy porgy's lonely too
Scaraboushka, too odd and way too weird for you
Scarabouska, fluffy back and a peachy plum
Scaraboushka, my Kim has to to call you mom
Luciëlla I'm your groom
La la la la la la la la la Luciëlla
La la la la la la la la Luciëlla
La la la la la la la la la Luciëlla
Ciëlla you and me
It's something that could never be
Ciëlla me and you
It's something that never could be true
Scaraboushka, orgy porgy's lonely too
Scaraboushka, too odd and way too weird for you
Scarabouska, fluffy back and a peachy plum
Scaraboushka, my Kim has to to call you mom
Luciëlla I'm your groom

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
