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.
I take it in stride, one day at a time
If I ask no questions I'll hear no lies
How come blessings only come in disguise'
Try that on for size as I vocalize
ain't nothing gonna get in between me and my flow
Ain't nothing gonna come between me and my afro
My man just left me, what do ya know'
Easy come, easy go
He came out of the blue and went right back into it
Had to forfeit 'cause he couldn't get with it
Called it quits and when he split
He said he didn't have time for my juvenile bullshit
I've had a lot of failed relationships
I don't get involved because I'm not equipped
I believe that the world should revolve around me!
I don't see the point of a partnership
It won't be long until they start to trip
Yes siree, the whole world should revolve around me!
there's only one me in the galaxy
I am an endangered species
This kind of flower don't grow on Earth
Just lettin' you know for what it's worth
This kind of knowledge can cause a depression
So I bide my time with philosophical questions
Not for nothing, but what came first'
The chicken nugget or the Egg McMuffin'
I got talent and I got tits
I know I'll find another guy who wants to get with it
I'm not convinced that I'm a big fat whore
One man's pleasure is another man's chore
I've had a lot of failed relationships
I don't get involved because I'm not equipped
I believe that the world should revolve around me!
I don't see the point of a partnership
It won't be long until they start to trip
Yes siree, the whole world should revolve around me!
I know I rock and what I got is hot
And you know I got a lot
'Cause all that trippin' you gotta stop
Before you know it your ass'll be dropped
I ain't concerned with my biological clock
Since I never grow old, my money's always in stocks
Keep screwing that bitch from down the block
I don't need you around, I know I rock!
I've had a lot of failed relationships
I don't get involved because I'm not equipped
I believe that the world should revolve around me!
I don't see the point of a partnership
It won't be long until they start to trip
Yes siree, the whole world should revolve around me!
I've had a lot of failed relationships
I don't get involved because I'm not equipped
I believe that the world should revolve around me!
I don't see the point of a partnership
It won't be long until they start to trip
Yes siree, the whole world should revolve around me!
If I ask no questions I'll hear no lies
How come blessings only come in disguise'
Try that on for size as I vocalize
ain't nothing gonna get in between me and my flow
Ain't nothing gonna come between me and my afro
My man just left me, what do ya know'
Easy come, easy go
He came out of the blue and went right back into it

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
