LYRICS
\nOpaque couch\u00e9
\nEn Garde! Touch\u00e9!<\/p>\n

Can a color be ugly
\nLet’s look and see
\nAre your guts pretty
\nAs pretty as can be<\/p>\n

Have you ever looked within your skin
\nWhat are the tales of your entrails
\nOpaque couch\u00e9
\nEn Garde! Touch\u00e9!<\/p>\n

How can you suggest
\nA color’s the ugliest
\nIf you don’t mind
\nBeing color blind
\nOpaque couch\u00e9
\nEn Garde! Touch\u00e9!<\/p>\n

Look inside and see what you see
\nAre your guts pretty
\nAs pretty as can be
\nOpaque couch\u00e9
\nEn Garde! Touch\u00e9!

The song is about a study of the ugliest color: “The agency GfK asked a thousand smokers which colour they found most visually offensive, with a view to covering cigarette packets with it. Pantone 448C, or opaque couch\u00e9 came out top. Respondents associated the colour with \u201cdirty\u201d, \u201cdeath\u201d, and \u201ctar\u201d.”\u00a0 Well, before you call a color ugly, look at the color of your insides.<\/p>\n
