I used to know you so well

When things were so beautiful

When things never got bad

And everyone was fine

Now I don't know you anymore

I hear your being a little whore

Who are you?

What have you done

With the one I know?



So I'll just stick my middle finger in the air

Cuz you fucked up and I still care

What you're doin's driving me insane

Who the hell ran off with your brain

I can say that I don't care

But that would be a lie

Stop being a stupid ho

And get the hell away from that guy



So now I'm thinkin what your doin' and I don't wanna know

And I know that we are over but I still care somehow

Oh, baby, what have you done to yourself?

I never saw you doing what you did you did it for sure

And I hear these people talking how you're acting like a whore

Oh, baby, what have you done?



So I'll just stick my middle finger in the air

Cuz you fucked up and I don't care

Anymore

Why did you do this you whore?

I know I'm never gonna see you again

Why do you do this when you're gonna lose all your friends?

Oh baby, it doesn't matter to you!



I won't be there when he screws you over

I won't be there when he makes you cry

I won't be there when he throws your heart on the floor

Cuz I am just another guy

This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone). And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

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.

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
