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.
Young girl, I saw you walk right up my street
Your eyes are naked, those promises that you can’t keep
Then you go swinging to the rhythm of some unknown beat
I love the way your body talks cause it says so much
Ooh so much
So so so so much
Ooh so much
So so so so
Wish I could take you home and lay you in my bed
Wish I could teach you all the things your mother never did
And every morning I could give you sweet champagne
I love the way your body talks cause it says so much
Ooh so much
So so so so much
Ooh so much
So so so so
You’re just sweet sixteen
But I still love you (love you, love you)
You’re just sweet sixteen (ahh)
Don’t say your mother’s tried
Make love to me before I die (die, die, die)
Don’t say your mother’s tried
Make love to me before I die (die, die, die)
When you walk in your eyes (walk into your)
There’s no need to decide
And no more guilty fantasize
Just let your body talk to me
You gotta say so much (so much, so much, so much)
Ooh, so much (so much, so much, so much)
So so so so much (so much, so much, so much)
Ooh, so much (so much, so much, so much)
So so so so much (so much, so much, so much)
Ooh, so much (so much, so much, so much)
So so so so much (so much, so much, so much)
Ooh, so much (so much, so much, so much)
So so so so much (so much, so much, so much)
Ooh, so much (so much, so much, so much)
So so so so much (so much, so much, so much)
Your eyes are naked, those promises that you can’t keep
Then you go swinging to the rhythm of some unknown beat
I love the way your body talks cause it says so much
Ooh so much
So so so so much
Ooh so much
So so so so
Wish I could take you home and lay you in my bed
Wish I could teach you all the things your mother never did
And every morning I could give you sweet champagne
I love the way your body talks cause it says so much
Ooh so much
So so so so much
Ooh so much
So so so so
You’re just sweet sixteen
But I still love you (love you, love you)
You’re just sweet sixteen (ahh)
Don’t say your mother’s tried
Make love to me before I die (die, die, die)
Don’t say your mother’s tried
Make love to me before I die (die, die, die)
When you walk in your eyes (walk into your)
There’s no need to decide
And no more guilty fantasize
Just let your body talk to me
You gotta say so much (so much, so much, so much)
Ooh, so much (so much, so much, so much)
So so so so much (so much, so much, so much)
Ooh, so much (so much, so much, so much)
So so so so much (so much, so much, so much)
Ooh, so much (so much, so much, so much)
So so so so much (so much, so much, so much)
Ooh, so much (so much, so much, so much)
So so so so much (so much, so much, so much)
Ooh, so much (so much, so much, so much)
So so so so much (so much, so much, so much)

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
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.
