The muffin man is seated at the table in the laboratory of the utility muffin |
|
Research kitchen... reaching for an oversized chrome spoon he gathers an |
|
Intimate quantity of dried muffin remnants and brushing his scapular aside |
|
Procceds to dump these inside of his shirt... |
|
He turns to us and speaks: |
|
"some people like cupcakes better. i for one care less for them!" |
|
Arrogantly twisting the sterile canvas snoot of a fully charged icing |
|
Anointment utensil he poots forths a quarter-ounce green rosette (oh ah yuk |
|
Yuk... let's try that again...!) he poots forth a quarter-ounce green rosette |
|
Near the summit of a dense but radiant muffin of his own design. |
|
Later he says: |
|
"some people... some people like cupcakes exclusively, while myself, i say |
|
There is naught nor ought there be nothing so exalted on the face of god's grey |
|
Earth as that prince of foods... the muffin!" |
|
Girl you thought he was a man |
|
But he was a muffin |
|
He hung around till you found |
|
That he didn't know nuthin' |
|
Girl you thought he was a man |
|
But he only was a-puffin' |
|
No cries is heard in the night |
|
As a result of him stuffin' |
