gary: i reflect on my reflection
and i ask myself the question
whats the right direction to go
i dont know
am i a man or am i a muppet
if im a muppet then im a very manly muppet
am i a muppet or am i a man
if im a man that makes me a muppet of a man

Walter: i look into these eyes
and i dont recognize
the one i see inside
its time for me to decide
am i a man or am i a muppet
if im a muppet then im a very manly muppet
am i a muppet or am i a man
if im a man that makes me a muppet of a man

here i go again
i think i made up my mind
now i understand who i am
im a man
im a muppet
im a muppet of a man
im a very manly muppet
this is what i am

Great transcription of the lyrics, but there are some lines missing/incorrect. I'm actually listening to the soundtrack right now. I can't quite make out exactly what is being said in one line... so I'll put the part I'm unsure about (sure it's wrong) in between apostrophes.

Together:
Here i go again
'oh mo' is running out of time
I think I've made up my mind
now I understand who I am

Gary: I'm a man

Walter: I'm a muppet
Gary: I'm a muppet of a man
Walter: I'm a very manly muppet
Gary: I'm a muppety man

Together: That's what I am

This might be my favorite song from the new movie...definately something a muppet fan (or Puppeteer in my case) can relate to. I'd rather be a very manly muppet any day of the week though.

Good ears Maddie! It's funny because when I listened to it before I kept hearing the same thing over and over again even though I knew what i heard was wrong. Then I read your post and I hear it correctly now. Funny how our minds interpret what we hear so much differently based on what we know. (or don't know lol)

Assuming the welcome was for both Maddie and I, Thank you! :jim:

Danny - I totally agree. Great song. Although... I think I'm a muppety man, rather than a manly muppet. lol
