"Egg Cream"


	When I was a young man, no bigger than this
	a chocolate egg cream was not to be missed
	Some U Bet's Chocolate Syrup, seltzer water mixed with milk
	stir it up into a heady fro, tasted just like silk

	You scream, I steam, We all want Egg Cream
	You scream, I steam, We all want Egg Cream

	Now you can go to Junior's, Dave's on Canal St.
	and I think there's Ken's in Boston, there must be something in L.A.
	But Becky's on Kings Highway, was the Egg Cream of choice
	and if you don't believe me, go ask any of the boys, ah

	You scream, I steam, We all want Egg Cream, ah
	You scream, I steam, We all want Egg Cream

	The only good thing I remember about P.S.92
	was the Egg Cream served at Becky's, it was a fearsome brew
	For fifty cents you got a shot, chocolate bubbles up your nose
	that made it easier to deal with knife flights 
	and kids pissing in the street, ah

	You scream, I steam, We all want Egg Cream, oh
	You scream, I steam, We all want Egg Cream

	So the next time you're in Brooklyn, Please say hello for me
	at Totonno's for Pizza and ice cream at Al and Shirley's
	But mostly you go to Becky's, sit in a booth and say hello
	and have two chocolate Egg Cream, one to stay and go, oh, oh

	You scream, I steam, We all want Egg Cream
	You scream, I steam, We all want Egg Cream
	Hey, hey, you scream, I steam, We all want Egg Cream
	You scream, I steam, ah, We all want Egg Cream
