The Muffin Man
Nursery rhyme baker
The Muffin Man is a figure from a traditional English nursery rhyme and children's singing game: Do you know the Muffin Man who lives on Drury Lane?
The rhyme likely references street vendors who sold muffins door-to-door in 18th and 19th century England.
The phrase sometimes appears in pop culture as a knowing reference or non sequitur: Not the buttons! Not the gumdrop buttons!
