Tex: Yeah, it's funny in a rich man's worldWhen I need a piece of string, I use a string of pearlsIf something's for sale, consider it soldI've got so much gold, I gold plate my gold!I even got a guy to gold plate my catI don't regret much, but I do regret thatIf I could start all over, I'd do it all the sameExcept I wouldn't gold-plate little Twinkles again! Backup Singers: He's Tex RichmanEverybody listenJust how great it is to be him(It's great to be me)He's the greatestYou're the lamest!Muppets are a waste of timeOh, can't you see?(Tex: Oh, it's great to be me) Tex: I recall a heartbreaking storyAbout my own tenth birthday partyShould've been a glorious day for meI'd have been happy as can beBut the Muppets were there,To put on a show!They started to dance,They were telling their jokes!I didn't laugh,I didn't know how!Then my friends,They all turned around,And they laughed at me!They laughed at me!I hate you, Muppets so! Backup Singers: He's Tex RichmanEverybody listenJust how great it is to be himHe's the greatestHe's the greatestMuppets are a waste of timeOh, can't you see? Tex: Little muppets, time to give up your dream.

- "Let's Talk About Me" is an original song from the film The Muppets. After Kermit the Frog and the other Muppets approach Tex Richman and ask him to save their theater, Tex suddenly breaks into rap, boasting about his own wealth and glory and taunting the Muppets. Chris Cooper commented on his musical number stating: “I get to do a hip hop number. Let me tell you, I had a ball. We rehearsed it with Michael Rooney, Mickey Rooney’s son, the choreographer. I have four really cute girl dancers in ’60s Vegas costumes with me. Bret McKenzie from Flight of the Conchords wrote the music, and I cut a working track to do the scene. I get to go back in the recording studio to clean up the track. We spent hours in the studio giving this number a few Tex personal touches.” On the soundtrack, there is an operatic section sung by Nathan Pacheco where Tex sings about why he hates the Muppets so much. This bridge was cut from the final film. However, the Blu-ray includes the entire song as a bonus feature. Chris Cooper sings the operatic bridge himself in this version.
