I'M a Muffin In a Cupcake's World
Look
Just take a page out of my book
Call me Captain Hook
Because my hooks have you hooked
And don't you dare give me that look
You know you looked
Call me a spook
Because they dropped a nuke
Now I'm a ghost
But I don't suffer the most
Golly gee I'm your host
So why don't we have a toast
On the beautiful east coast
Everyone's so afraid of running out of time
And losing a single solitary second is quite the crime
But I'm just here for rhythmic acrobatics
Not advanced mathematics
Because my tactics are subtle
And I do love to befuddle
I could distort the truth with a lie
And I heard that sigh
I'm spinning you up and down and all around
With my verbose vocal sound
Zounds!
I'm dropping words you've never heard
Like a bird I'm taking flight
I'm definitely not here for a fight
Hear me now I'm ready for midnight
I'm that witty city kid
This is what I've done my whole life
Even through days rife with strife
I put that pen to paper like a caper
Stealing rhymes, stealing lines
Dealing fines, reeling signs
I'm really doing this again and again
For my own gains I stay in my lane
They told me I ran out of talent
I told them they ran out of paper
Because I'm standing tall like a skyscraper
And if I'm arrogant I might as well be an error gent
Because I spent and I spent
Could never catch the hint
Let me just say I'm a muffin in a cupcake's world
A muffin in a cupcake's world
Look
You took a page out of my book
But you lost the hook
Because the truth is I'm a crook
And I stole it before you knew it was there
But if I'm a muffin in a cupcake's world
I'll be the muffinator
Because there will be nothin' later
So keep being a hater
To you I do not cater
And I didn't imagine you'd be my waiter
Look
Be honest you read the book
And you finally found the hook
But you're not Tom Nook
And I'm no longer that witty city kid
Because I'm a muffin in a cupcake's world
A muffin
In a cupcake's world
