Freshly baked bread in the oven
Another batch of corn muffins
The baker begins to mutter
"Where the heck is the butter?"

It is nowhere to be found
No, it is missing by the pound

The baker wants some money
Churns butter up to his knees
He never wanted a life like this
No, this was not his wish!
The oven's running on time
The bread is baking inside
"I need butter!"
He mutters

There is no way to recover
The baker's ten pounds of butter
Somebody must have devoured
All of the lard in the cupboard

'Cause it is nowhere to be found
No, it's still missing by the pound

The baker wants some money
Churns butter up to his knees
He never wanted a life like this
No, this was not his wish!
The oven's running on time
The bread is baking inside
"I need butter!"
He mutters
[chorus x3]
