Linnell: [exaggerated accent] "Hi, Corn Mo." Corn Mo: "Hey, Linnell." Linnell: "Uh, what's going on?" Corn Mo: "Same old, same old..." Linnell: "I know that! I heard that. [normal voice] Um. So, uh... remember all the good times? Um, so, uh, shall we play the song Particle Man?" [audience screams] Corn Mo: "Yeah?" Linnell: "Rhetorical question?" Corn Mo: "Yes." Linnell: "Yes? Okay."

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 Millennium hand and an eon hand And 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

Man

Triangle Man

Triangle Man, Triangle Man, Triangle Man Triangle Man Triangle Man hates Person Man They have a fight, Triangle wins They have a fight, Triangle wins

Man

They have a fight, Triangle wins Triangle Man
