Muffin Man (Live)
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'
He shoulda rammed it in there
Girl, you thought he was a man
But he was a muffin. Everybody sing along!
Okay, I'll tell you the words, it's really easy
'Cause I have to sing it so low, so maybe you can't tell what the words are
If you don't have the Bongo Fury album you'll never know
The words are, "Girl, you thought he was a man but he was a muffin"
And then you say, "He hung around till you found that he didn't know nuthin'"
And then you say, "Girl, you thought he was a man but he, he only was a-puffin'"
That's right! And then you say, "No cries is heard in the night as a result of him stuffin'"
Okay. Now wait
Girl, you thought he was a man
But he was a muffin (That's right)
He hung around till you found
That he didn't know nuthin'
A big choral effect here
Girl, you thought he was a man
But he only was a-puffin' (Don't be shy! Don't be shy)
No cries is heard in the night
As a result of him stuffin'
I always felt that the people in this town was
They were very musical. I thought that if there was any place in the world
Where we could actually get real live audience participation it would have to be Philadelphia. I mean, look
Just think of me as, think as, just think of me as sort of an older, more sinister Dick Clark. You know what I mean?
Awright, awright. Here it is, ladies and gentlemen, this is the basis of
This is the basis for communication in America today. I'd like to have each and everyone of you stand up and salute the flag
Here it is. This is your American heritage, right here. 200 years and this is all you get
Right there. Maybe in 200 more years you can have these!
And, if evolution takes its natural course, in 1000 years you can do it with your feet, if you still got any
Ray! Patrick! Terry! Eddie! Bianca! Fido! Richard Nixon right out there in the- Thanks for coming by, Dick
He's looking good. He's looking better than I've seen him in weeks
Thanks for coming to the show. Good night
But he was a muffin
He hung around till you found
That he didn't know nuthin'
