The way this song speaks to me🥺🥺when I sing it I feel like I relate
Don´t care what they have to say
Why you listening to them anyway?
Why do you have to give them what they want?
They love to watch you as you fall apart
Stick it to them like a phoenix rise
There´s nothing grander than the big surprise
They can´t hurt you with their sticks and stones
About time take them right between the eyes
Seek to destroy cause they´re scared of you
That´s why they try to make a fool of you
They´re so jealous of my pretty star
Cause you´ve got soul inside your shattered heart
Stick it to them like a phoenix rise
There´s nothing grander than the big surprise
They can´t hurt you with their sticks and stones
About time take them right between the eyes
And you´ve been waiting all your life
To fly high into somebody else
And it´s true it´s a cruel, cruel world
Life´s a bitch and then you die my love
Don´t care what they have to say
You shouldn´t listen to them anyway?
Stick it to them like a phoenix rise
There´s nothing grander than the big surprise
They can´t hurt you with their sticks and stones
About time take them right between the eyes
People kill to build you up
Then they´ll stab you in the back like that
You know it breaks my heart
Can´t see you going out like that
Stay alive my love
Stay alive my love
Stay alive my love
Stay alive my love
Why you listening to them anyway?
Why do you have to give them what they want?
They love to watch you as you fall apart
Stick it to them like a phoenix rise
There´s nothing grander than the big surprise
They can´t hurt you with their sticks and stones
About time take them right between the eyes
Seek to destroy cause they´re scared of you
That´s why they try to make a fool of you
They´re so jealous of my pretty star
Cause you´ve got soul inside your shattered heart
Stick it to them like a phoenix rise
There´s nothing grander than the big surprise
They can´t hurt you with their sticks and stones
About time take them right between the eyes
And you´ve been waiting all your life
To fly high into somebody else
And it´s true it´s a cruel, cruel world
Life´s a bitch and then you die my love
Don´t care what they have to say
You shouldn´t listen to them anyway?
Stick it to them like a phoenix rise
There´s nothing grander than the big surprise
They can´t hurt you with their sticks and stones
About time take them right between the eyes
People kill to build you up
Then they´ll stab you in the back like that
You know it breaks my heart
Can´t see you going out like that
Stay alive my love
Stay alive my love
Stay alive my love
Stay alive my love

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.

"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.
