Triangle Head Lyrics - Stan Ridgway

Now, south of Drag-strip Hollow 

Right past Deadman's Curve 

There's a message in a bottle 

It's a scandal, have you heard 

Now, the bishop's wife just closed the door 

The birds don't fly there anymore 

And the whole town is talking 

The whole town is talking 

Triangle Head 

He sets a big steel trap 

He'll find you out with a secret map 

He's a phantom spook and he drinks pink champagne 

He lives at the end of a cul-de-sac 

He got a crossbow with a hairpin sight 

Targets change from night to night 

So when you hit his big blockade 

Into his muddy waters, you will wade 

They call him Triangle Head 

He got three ways to go 

One's just past the hairpin turn 

The rest are down below 

Call him Triangle Head 

He's got a wide-brim hat in his hand there's a hole 

He uses his dick for a walkin' pole 

He walks a big black dog with a collar of spikes 

He wears a belt of skin from a killin' last night 

They call him Triangle Head 

Triangle Head 

He's got three ways to go 

One's just past the hairpin turn 

The other is down below 

Triangle Head 

He knows just what to do 

Triangle Head 

The rest is up to you 

Triangle Head 

Triangle Head
