Particle man, Particle man
Doing the things a particle can
What's he like?
It's not important
Particle man
Is he a dot, or is he a speck?
When he's underwater
does he get wet?
or does the water get him instead?
Nobody knows
Particle man

Triangle man, Triangle man
Triangle man hates particle man
They have a fight
Triangle wins
Triangle man

[ Solo ]

Universe man, Universe man
Size of the entire universe man
usually kind to Smaller man
Universe man
He's got a watch with a minute hand,
millennium hand and an eon hand
when they meet it's a happy land
Powerful man, Universe man

Person man, Person man
hit on the head with a frying pan
lives his life in a garbage can
Person man
Is he depressed or is he a mess?
does he feel totally worthless?
who came up with Person man?
Degraded man, Person man

Triangle man, Triangle man
Triangle man hates Person man
they have a fight
Triangle wins
Triangle man

[ Solo ]
