It';s not a commonly-shared view, but I think 'Partyman' also refers to Babylon.

After the lyric:

"Ain't nuthin but a muffin
We got a lotta butter 2 go"

Most people transcribe the words as something like::

"Say I oughta knock U in, but don't come no"

I tend to think this is a sample rooted in Rastafarian patois:

"Say I and I like your way" or
"Say I and I lock you away"

followed by

"To Babylon come no"
.
