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.
Pelted - I am gassed
On strengthening markets
My thoughts are a gas
I made it to runway
I'll make it to Airway - not to crash
Penetrating water and rock
And the rock echoes back
My thoughts are a gas
Of lights who've faded out before here comes the same
When I'm coded from to much of what I can't describe
Kept at bay in some regard despite what she wrote
I've been frozen in a site display where nothing amounts
To anything
Took a journey back to sometime just to find out
If I could locate another improbable passage way
Penetrating water and rock and the rock echos back
My thoughts are a gas
I'm not going to crash
Into anyone
And often asked
What do you know
Just what was handed down to me
Slip graciously in to the happy homes
Groping sick and frequently opposed
Because I
Built this champion
Out of their own wasted flesh
Is this supposed to do that
Through it all I'll pass
Cause my thoughts are a gas
My thoughts are a gas
My thoughts are a gas
On strengthening markets
My thoughts are a gas
I made it to runway
I'll make it to Airway - not to crash
Penetrating water and rock
And the rock echoes back
My thoughts are a gas
Of lights who've faded out before here comes the same
When I'm coded from to much of what I can't describe
Kept at bay in some regard despite what she wrote
I've been frozen in a site display where nothing amounts
To anything
Took a journey back to sometime just to find out
If I could locate another improbable passage way
Penetrating water and rock and the rock echos back
My thoughts are a gas
I'm not going to crash
Into anyone
And often asked
What do you know
Just what was handed down to me
Slip graciously in to the happy homes
Groping sick and frequently opposed
Because I
Built this champion
Out of their own wasted flesh
Is this supposed to do that
Through it all I'll pass
Cause my thoughts are a gas
My thoughts are a gas
My thoughts are a gas

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.
There are two different versions of this song and the lyrics are also different, if anyone cares.
