Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[F#aug]The muffin man is
seated at the table
In the [Gm]laboratory [F#aug]of the utility
muffin Research kitchen.
Reaching for [F#]an oversized
[F#aug]chrome spoon,
He gathers an Intimate
quantity of dried [Am]muffin
Rem[E]nants [Edim]and brush[Dm]
ing his scapular aside,
[G]Procceds to dump the[F#aug]se
inside of his shirt...
He turns to [C#aug]us and[E]
[Edim]speaks:

[Verse 2]
"Some people like cupcakes better.

[Verse 3]
I for one care less for them!"
[Edim][F#aug]
Arrogantly twisting the sterile canvas
Snoot of a fully charged
icing anointment utensil,
He 'poot's forths a quarter-
ounce green rosette,
- oh ah yuk, yuk... let's try that again...! -
He 'poots' forth a quarter-
ounce [F#]green rosette
Near the summit of a dense,
[F#aug]But radiant muffin of his own design.[F#]
Later [Dm]he says:[E]
"Some [Edim]people... some

[Verse 4]
[Edim]people
[Gdim]like cup cak[C#dim]es
Ex[Bbdim]clusively, while myself, I [Edim]say,
There is naught nor [G]ought
[Gdim]there be nothing
So exalted on the face of [Bbdim]god's grey
Earth as that prince of food
[C#dim]s... the [Edim]muffin!"

[Verse 5]
[Dm]Girl you [D]thought he [Em]was [G]a man,
But he [Am]was a muffin,
He [Dm]hung around [Em]till you [G]found,
That he didn't [Am]know nuthin',

[Verse 6]
[Dm]Girl you thought he [Em]was [G]a man,
But he only [Am]was a- puffin',
[G]No cri[Dm]es is hea[Em]rd in the night,
[G]As a result of him[Am] stuffin',
