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.
You can't stop it You can't escape it You can't turn it off
So I'd appreciate your kind consideration in this matter
Sir or Mam would you please turn it the fuck up
Do it
Unleashed in the east
Best dressed in the west
Sorted in the north
Without a doubt in the south
The queen of queenbees
Lioness of Juda
Phoenix from the ashes risen
Undefeated undisputed featherweight champion
on all five continents
World record holder with a high score of two gazillion in Tetris
Two-time recipient of the Nobel prize for super foxiest female ever
and war time consigliere to the Cosa Nostra
She split the storm, invented the x-ray, the cure for AIDS, and the surprise blindfold greeting
She performed and choreographed the fights for Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon
and Game of death and still does stunt doubles for Jackie Chan on the weekends
She suckerpunched Einstein, outsmarted Ali, and even outsuperfreaked Rick James
She's the founder and CEO of Konichiwa Records
The most decorated professional field operative in the industry
and in the streets
With a perfect track record since kindergarden where she used to
whoop schoolboy ass
She's listed in section 202 of the United Nations Security Act of 1979
as being too hot to wear tight sweaters on international airspace
In this world of tension pressure and pain
she is known by men and women of all origin and faith
for her wisdom, compassion, and relentless
determination in the quest to get paid

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.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
As per the dictionary:
n. pl. curricula vitae Abbr. CV A summary of one's education, professional history, and job qualifications, as for a prospective employer.
Basically a resume, but far more in depth.
So, to the song. This was the first song on Robyns 2005 album, 'Robyn'. This was the first release in which she showcased her new synth-pop/electro-pop/indie-tronica sound. Before this album, she was largely seen as a strictly pop artist. This spoken word song meant to introduce us to the 'new' Robyn.
For the most part, the lyrics are jokingly listing Robyn's qualifications. The only real factual lyric is that she is, in fact, the founder and CEO of Konichiwa Records.
Overall, it's an interesting song. A fun introduction to her new sound and image.
