Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?
I'm gonna ask you so you understand
What you done with your time
Oh think it over baby
Just keep walkin' on
Until you find your man
Don't it feel so bad?
Well I'm used to that
Don't it feel so bad?
Get used to that
Don't push it baby
Please don't go to far
I swear I love ya
Just the way you are
All this justice in my hands
And what you done with your time?
I could stand it if I just kept breathin' oh
What you done with your time?
Don't it feel so bad?
Well I'm used to that
Don't it feel so bad?
Well get used to that
Don't push it baby
Please don't go to far
I swear I love ya
Just the way ya are
Oh skin and bones baby
Yes you are my star
I swear I love ya
Just the way you are
Don't push it baby
Don't push it baby
Don't push it baby
Please don't go to far
I swear I love ya
Just the way ya are
Oh skin and bones baby
Yes you are my star
I swear I love ya
Just the way ya are
Don't push it baby.
What you done with your time

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.

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.
ok for a song about such a depressing topic, like an eating disorder, i could totally listen to it and just rock out forever!! lovin jet!!! some seriously good tune-age!!
