its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Won't you tell me the reason why
He goes out almost every night?
He never goes too far he's always
The one who's got it right
He's got charm
He's got style
He's got a dozen girls
Tell me why
I don't know why
He's got a dozen girls
Now he's always the one with all the hooks
When it comes to making it with you
Now I would be there in his place if only
I knew what it is I had to do
He's got charm
He's got style
He's got a dozen girls
Tell me why
I don't know why
He's got a dozen girls
He's got charm
He's got style
He's got a dozen girls
Tell me why
I don't know why
He's got a dozen girls
He's alright and he don't care
He's got thermal underwear
He goes out almost every night?
He never goes too far he's always
The one who's got it right
He's got charm
He's got style
He's got a dozen girls
Tell me why
I don't know why
He's got a dozen girls
Now he's always the one with all the hooks
When it comes to making it with you
Now I would be there in his place if only
I knew what it is I had to do
He's got charm
He's got style
He's got a dozen girls
Tell me why
I don't know why
He's got a dozen girls
He's got charm
He's got style
He's got a dozen girls
Tell me why
I don't know why
He's got a dozen girls
He's alright and he don't care
He's got thermal underwear

He certainly did earn that reputation.

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.

I always thought this song is about the typical lucky playboy who took all the girls… Great song for a pint in an English pub!
