The Muppet Show Season 5 Episode 21

Paul inspires Gonzo to be a songwriter. Unfortunately, Gonzo writes songs like “For You”: “For youuu… I’d wash my hair with stinky glue, I’d fry my legs and eat them too, I’d put a spider in my shoe — for yoouuuu!” Paul is stunned. Later, Gonzo’s chickens run off with Paul, so Gonzo develops a new obsession — asparagus. But at the end of the episode both the chickens and the asparagus run away when Paul asks for chicken with a side of asparagus.
