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'
