The Muppets are a group of puppet characters created by Jim Henson, many for the purpose of appearing on the children's television program Sesame Street. Henson's involvement in Sesame Street began when he and Joan Ganz Cooney, one of the creators of the show, met in the summer of 1968, at one of the show's five three-day curriculum planning seminars in Boston.

Supermarket Sunshine wakes up when its cold outside
Puts himself back to bed and waits for the high tide
Supermarket Sunshine shows up to school so high
Scribbles on the walls, but doesn't talk because he's so shy 
Supermarket Sunshine tied up and did bind
All the girls' fragile hearts because he was confined

To angsty afternoons
Dying too soon
Sitting on that chair in the early fall beach gloom

Supermarket Sunshine goes skating with his friend, Rye
They do the cool tricks then they give each other high fives
Supermarket Sunshine journals about last night
Shattered ear drums from bass amps turned up high
Supermarket Sunshine goes swimming for the first time
First he does a stroke then he executes the high dive

To angsty afternoons
Dying too soon
Sitting on that chair in the early fall beach gloom

And all the pretty girls at the skater park scene 
They want the boys to watch them, but they only watch TV
They sleep all day and they stay up all night
And they go crazy by the firelight

Supermarket Sunshine Puffs on his glass pipe
Ties up his laces though they look cooler untied
And Supermarket Sunshine drinks iced tea for 99 cents 
From the store with the fortune teller outside
Supermarket Sunshine dreams of insecticide 
Poisoning us all and then laughing at our decline

To angsty afternoons
Dying too soon
Sitting on that chair in the early fall beach gloom
