Step Lyrics

I need help
I need help

I don't know who I am no more
I'm gonna get some help
Help me

[Singing:]

Step! Step, step it up baby!
Got a question for you: like, who, what, where, why?
Are we even here?
Or are we following alone like another lost Indian looking for his tribe?
Oh dial the phone.
We might as well find someone else.
???

Grrr!

[wails]

I like to apologize to all my wonderful fans
For sticking by me through such troubled times
I love all you so much
I wish I could take you all to the Betty Ford Clinic
Yeah

[Singing:]

Step! Step it up baby!
We gotta sell instutions of recovery,
We gotta kill distrubutions of the pills I take!
???

Grr!

Step! Step it up baby!

[...]

I love all my fans
Through these times of nakedness
If I could I'd take any one of you with me
Put you right underneath my pillow

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.

@TheSongBard "Dark Side of the Spoon" encapsulates the poignant journey of a musical genius amidst personal turmoil. From legendary drug intake to near-loss of everything, Jourgensen's candid lyrics reflect the harsh realities of addiction. The album title itself is a blend of humor and sadness, mirroring his struggle. This song stands as a heartfelt message to fans and friends, acknowledging his plight. While it's painful to listen to, it marks a turning point. Cheers to Jourgensen for finding clarity and reclaiming his path. Well done, sir.
