Orange Triangle

from Your Favorite Spoon by Tony Castellano

/

about

A song with a somewhat "Grateful Dead"-ish feel, about nothing in particular. Actually some of the lyrics are a bit embarrassing and are full of Bud Collins Trio "in-jokes" and other disconnected thoughts in a similar vein to those for "Jagged Helmet" from 'The Red Hour', which was written around the same time. This song first appeared on The Bud Collins Trio fall 1988 release, "Watching Channel Zero".

lyrics

I'm using a fork for a spoon just for fun I'm hunting a moose with an elephant gun got a piece that's too big but I made it just fit got a creaky old staircase that's always unlit looking for that permanent tangle have to use a wrench as a hammer sometimes like to let those logical connections dangle got to add that line that doesn't really rhyme I'm trying to vie for that pie in the sky a man with a clawhammer jammed in his eye one foot in the freezer the other in coals wanting to put the square pegs in round holes trying to get it in at an angle shooting for some distance on that power drive fuming 'cause I'm stuck behind that orange triangle crawling at a speed of only twenty-five
