High life
one million people congregatin’
fillin’ up bodega streets.
they join him in the celebration.
hey, domingo can’t be beat.
each body looks just like the last one,
twenty-one through twenty-five.
they’ll follow you if you don’t belong here.
solidarity is nice.
one voice united for the purpose. (one voice united)
one voice to rise above the others
in the rage.
where is the rage?
oh, is it the same?
where is the rage?
is it the same?
where is the rage?
one…
where is the rage?
where is the rage?
fillin’ up bodega streets.
they join him in the celebration.
hey, domingo can’t be beat.
each body looks just like the last one,
twenty-one through twenty-five.
they’ll follow you if you don’t belong here.
solidarity is nice.
one voice united for the purpose. (one voice united)
one voice to rise above the others
in the rage.
where is the rage?
oh, is it the same?
where is the rage?
is it the same?
where is the rage?
one…
where is the rage?
where is the rage?

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.

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.

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.
it's true; hey domingo can't be beat. great song. i hope they put it on #5.
yea its an alrite song i guess, ive downloaded pretty much all the 5th album demos in the past few days, they all sound the same!! (except mo beats, haha) ah is it me??
i have heard some of it and i really like what i've heard fof the demos so far... i'm sure they won't pick songs that sound exactly alike the whole way thru to put on the album--they're smarter than that. yay =w= you rock guys
The syncopation in the verses of this song reminds me of the beatle's style so much, its a great song.
its nice but i dont really like the weird sounds... whatever you call it.
is this 5th album ever going to be released?
this spring... and this song was scrapped
