He certainly did earn that reputation.
now we're back
with revenge
wasn't gonna wait till after the day
we took their ship, and sunk them fast
but the war is in the past
and now the time has come
to show them exactly what we've become
because we are the ones
who stay strong and choose not to run
let's forge our names
we do this everyday
we make our own way
and take what you can get
all that we've done before
is in the past
this is what we've become
so go now
well i'm three sheets to the wind
and my world is beaming
we take what we need and we get what we want
what's yours is mine, if you like it or not
you better hide your daughters
because we're on our way home
so much to gain and nothing to lose
this life is ours but we take yours too
we'll let the world take us far from here
we're coming home and no one can stop us
map of the world take me home
pirates life for me!
pirates life for me!
OH!
well i'm three sheets to the wind
and my world is beaming
we take what we need and we get what we want
whats yours is mine, if you like it or not
you better hide your daughters
because were on our way home
so much to gain and nothing to lose
this life is ours but we take yours too
YO! HO!
pirates life for me!
i'll find wealth in the things i've gained
and you will find that you've lost your way
with revenge

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.

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
they said that the first part "...new mate to add to the gang" was about the new memeber but the song its self is just a party song lol and a great one at that!
