[Tom Sachs - "Color: A Comprehensive Color Guide Book lyrics]
Strict color code developed over decades
Our color code consists of a
Finite and precise color palate
The color code is non-negotionable we
Do not stray from
The color code the whole world
As we experience it visually
Comes to us through the mystic realm of color
Green in the studio
Green is olive drab oD 7 is our olive drab
For OD 7, our preferred choice is Kyron
Industrial Camouflage 8143

Orange
Orange is a native color in the studio
You will not find orange paint here
Except for emergency situations
Purple the color puple is a
Forbidden color the color
Purple is forbidden in the studio the
Color purple is punishable by death there is
Never an excuse for the color purple
Blue
For all NASA meatball applications we use:
Benjamin Moore Imperevex Latex High
Gloss Metal and
Wood Enamel Classic Navy 309 35
Pantone color standards are
Generally avoided because
Their limited range discourages subtlety
While we admire Pantone’s packaging and
Judicious use of Helvetica
We resent choosing from their limited
Offerings secret societies conspire
To keep us in the dark ages of
Color comitee mentally guarantees that
Shitty cars like Saturn
Are only available in teal and maroon
In this studio, we shun
Decision by committee instead
We look to the superlative Porshe palate
Which rains beautiful despite
The company's Nazi
Heritage and douche bag clientele
