Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Fear of an enemy a hand to a face
Words I overhear
Stop starting histories a code in a look
What's that number? (what's that number?)
Red light, panic, terror, error! (error!)
I'll cut her from ear to ear
Blue funk, panic, terror, error! (error!)
I'll cut her, I'll cut her,
I'll cut her, cut her, (fuck her) cut her
Crazed by my make believe a tongue down a throat
The grip on your arse
Tales that you tell to me a touch of your nose
Why did you stammer? (why did you stammer?)
Red light, panic, terror, error! (error!)
I'll cut ya from ear to ear
Blue funk, panic, terror, error! (error!)
I'll cut ya, I'll cut you, I'll cut you, cut you, cut you, cut ya
I'm your slave got to taste
The tears, the tears, the tears
I'm your slave got to taste
I'm your slave got to taste
The tears, the tears, the tears
I'm your slave got to taste
Red light, panic, terror, error! (error!)
I'll cut ya, I'll cut you, I'll cut you, cut you, cut you, cut ya
I'm your slave got to taste
The tears, the tears, the tears
I'm your slave got to taste
I'm your slave got to taste
The tears, the tears, the tears
I'm your slave got to taste

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.

"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.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
I don't think it says 'noise' in the last verse, i think it's 'nose'..... like how touching your nose and stammering is supposed to be a sign that you're lying
