Is he a dot, or is he a speck?

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
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,
Millenium 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

I saw them live many moons ago. This song was still pretty popular at the time if that tells you anything

I dunno. I think Universe man has a slight edge.

One night, or should I say just before sunrise, we had just gotten back from the casino where we actually won money from the indians this time. Well we were pretty well lit and happy about our winfall so we were singing, don't know who started it, "The sun is a mass of incondecent gas, a giant nuclear furnace"! We didn't know the rest of the words so we just kept repeating that as loud as we could in the most obnoxious manner. Those in the dorms weren't too happy with us considering it was sunrise on a saturday.

Universe Man is kind to smaller man tho! Triangle Man definately has power!
Is he a psycho or is he a freak?

they might be giants are horrible. I saw them live and they were even worse. Boingo is pretty good man....Saw them every year halloween at Irvine Meadows from about 86 to 94. They are easily one of the best live groups of all time.

Poo, he's a particle that behaves like a wave.
