Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
There you go giving your heart back to own you should wait around to see if they care
But go ahead and see it will be one of your worst fears to be
Gave your heart away, not much left to say, and apparently it seems to me
You wasted all your time on a situation that should have been clear to you
So now you know so betrayed the bitter ache that you wish would go away
Anyway I guess you know there's a price to pay for the trust you've given so easily away
But now I guess you'll see what it means to be heartbroken
But go ahead and see it will be one of your worst fears to be
Gave your heart away, not much left to say, and apparently it seems to me
You wasted all your time on a situation that should have been clear to you
So now you know so betrayed the bitter ache that you wish would go away
Anyway I guess you know there's a price to pay for the trust you've given so easily away
But now I guess you'll see what it means to be heartbroken

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.

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.

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.
Im Pretty sure this song is about breaking up like every other song
