I saw your picture in the paper today
I was impressed but I wouldn't not say
You are the queen of the USA
You always save it for the end of the day
I wouldn't die, wouldn't die for you
The good you're doing but I'm feeling blue
I know you're nimble and your heart seems true
I can't help thinking that I feel for you, for you

Bunt now I know that I have done wrong
I wish I looked, I looked so young
As your skin, so pale and you're thin
Give me your skin for dancing in
Give me your dress, you shoes and your hair
I'm going down, I'm going down there
Where the people will see how fair
I look tonight in your shoes and your dress and hair

You are the queen of my world
Why on this earth wasn't I told
We're gonna live forever
We're gonna fail to weather

Why on this earth wasn't I told
I'll never fold my uniform
We're gonna live forever
We're gonna die together

I saw your sister in the pictures today
I think shes pretty but i wouldn't not say
You are a beauty queen you're miss universe
But when i see you girl it makes me feel worse
Take off your shoes, your dress and your hair
I'm going down, I'm going down there
When tonight we'll see how fair
You look tonight when we dance on the floor, scream yeah

You are the queen of my world
Why on this earth wasn't I told
We're gonna live forever
We're gonna die together

You are the queen of my world
Why on this earth wasn't I told
We're gonna live forever
We're gonna fail to weather

Why on this earth wasn't I told
I'll never fold my uniform
We're gonna live forever
We're gonna die together

He certainly did earn that reputation.

Techno Ted
Audioslave
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.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Silent Planet
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.
