Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.
Diamonds, glitter and trauma tears, with an unfriendly atmosphere.
We'll make our night, we'll make tonight.
Your potential is underused, your skin will break into jigsaw shaped pieces of meat, you'll fall
Apart.
You can save them all.
I believe that you can.
Even though you never listen.
You never listen.
But you are, the human, strobe.
You are the human strobe.
We are, like lightening, surrounded.
You are the human strobe.
Slaughtered moments and useless tales, encourage others to take the blame.
I love you when, you're not around.
You can save them all.
I believe that you can.
Even though you never listen.
You never listen.
Let's take aim, you're looking the other way.
The right target, she's looking the other way.
There's no wreckage, I'll help you to do it right, tonight we'll make it ours.
You are, the human, strobe.
You are the human strobe.
We are, like lightening, surrounded.
You are the human strobe.
Let's take aim, I'll help you to do it right.
Tonight we'll make it ours.
You are, the human, strobe.
You are the human strobe.
We are, like lightening, surrounded.
You are the human strobe.
We'll make our night, we'll make tonight.
Your potential is underused, your skin will break into jigsaw shaped pieces of meat, you'll fall
Apart.
You can save them all.
I believe that you can.
Even though you never listen.
You never listen.
But you are, the human, strobe.
You are the human strobe.
We are, like lightening, surrounded.
You are the human strobe.
Slaughtered moments and useless tales, encourage others to take the blame.
I love you when, you're not around.
You can save them all.
I believe that you can.
Even though you never listen.
You never listen.
Let's take aim, you're looking the other way.
The right target, she's looking the other way.
There's no wreckage, I'll help you to do it right, tonight we'll make it ours.
You are, the human, strobe.
You are the human strobe.
We are, like lightening, surrounded.
You are the human strobe.
Let's take aim, I'll help you to do it right.
Tonight we'll make it ours.
You are, the human, strobe.
You are the human strobe.
We are, like lightening, surrounded.
You are the human strobe.

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.

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.
biffy lyrics don't seem to make any sense anymore. but i still love them.
