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.
Now shawty got a man, but I got a plan
Look, homie
I ain't trying to force your hand
But I'ma take your girl i'ma take your girl
And I can tell you, she wants me
She wants me, she wants me, she wants me
And yes I want her too i'ma take your girl
I swear to you every time I sees her
I seizure keep running through my mind
Jog my memories amnesia
Touch ya, tease ya, nervous? don't freeze up
She let me take control
I run a woman like a Visa
She always run back to me saying he's a
Dog off the leash
He got this other girl Alicia
She tell me she's in hell
I tell her take a breather
I'm nothing like your man
But I can't love you neither
It's wifey over bitches, but money's over her
Cause money's under nothing
My life is such a blur
It's not the way it has to go
It' just what I prefer
And any Young Money nigga I know would concur
Weezy talk to 'em!

Something about her

And I don't own a plane but there's
A mary jane and we can float
Your man ain't worrying about what's

You could get penalized the way
You blowin' below the rear
Now this game like a analog I don't sweat

She stressin', ya she testin' ya
She just tryin' to see what kinda level ya on
You don't make it bounce like a basketball
You ain't even get no ass at all
Now you sittin at the club
Trying to laugh it off
She done found her mid glam boy
You messin up, you messed up
Wasn't easy to clean your Mess up
She found me and I blessed her
I applied to her pressure
She call me a professor
I went gave her her lecture
I bet she says I'm better
Than her man was ever
Shawty got a man, but I got a plan
Look, homie
I ain't trying to force your hand
But I'ma take your girl i'ma take your girl
And I can tell you, she wants me
She wants me, she wants me, she wants me
And yes I want her too i'ma take your girl

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.

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”

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
