its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
I love you like grave danger
Like moon shining disguise
Mmm hmm
When I wake up with your makeup
And spread blush cross the sky
Like a meteor crush
I'm gonna tell the world
Been a million years full of tears
But I found my girl
My notion of love devotion
Was a corrosion of mind
Mmm hmm
Then come cupid and now I’m stupid
And I feel it’s just fine
Like exploding face
I’m gonna tell the world
Been a million years full of fears
But I found my girl
It’s a spun tongue
It’s a holy shit
It’s a loud cry from the heart
It’s a live death
It’s a big breath
It’s a no more we’re apart
Like a rainbow crash
As we bow and swirl
Been a million years full of tears
But I found my girl
Like exploding sun
Let the light unfurl
Been a million years full of fears
But I found my girl
Like moon shining disguise
Mmm hmm
When I wake up with your makeup
And spread blush cross the sky
Like a meteor crush
I'm gonna tell the world
Been a million years full of tears
But I found my girl
My notion of love devotion
Was a corrosion of mind
Mmm hmm
Then come cupid and now I’m stupid
And I feel it’s just fine
Like exploding face
I’m gonna tell the world
Been a million years full of fears
But I found my girl
It’s a spun tongue
It’s a holy shit
It’s a loud cry from the heart
It’s a live death
It’s a big breath
It’s a no more we’re apart
Like a rainbow crash
As we bow and swirl
Been a million years full of tears
But I found my girl
Like exploding sun
Let the light unfurl
Been a million years full of fears
But I found my girl

Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.

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.

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 love the "holy shit" in here too. It's what pops into my mind when I see something incredible or overwhelming, like the feeling you get when you find the right one.
