_ _ _ Reaching for an oversized chrome spoon, he gathers an intimate quantity of [A] dried [G#] muffin remnants,
[G] [F#] and brushing [F] his scapular [E] [D#] aside, proceeds [A#] to dump these inside of his shirt.
_ _ _ He turns to us and speaks,
[A] _ _ _ [G#] _ _ Some people like cupcakes better.
[Bm] I, for one, [G#] care less for them. _ _ _ _ _
[A#] _ _ _ Arrogantly twisting the sterile canvas snoot of a fully charged icing anointment utensil,
he puts forth a quarter ounce green rosette near _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ the summit of a dense but radiant muffin of his own design. _
_ _ _ _ [A] Later he [G#] says,
_ [D] _ Some people, some [F] people, like [D] cupcakes exclusively, while myself I say,
there is [F] not, nor ought there be, [B] nothing so [Bm] exalted on the face of God's gray earth as that prince [F] of foods, [Bm] _ the muffin.
[F#] _ Girl, [G] you thought [B] it was a man, [C] but [C#] it was [C#m] a muffin.
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] He hung [G#m] around till he [B] found that [C] he [C#m] didn't know nothing. _
_ _ _ _ _ [F#m] Girl, you [G#m] thought [B] it was a man, but [C#m] it only was a muffin.
_ _ _ _ No cries heard [B] in the night as a [C#] result of him [C#m] stopping. _
