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

You scream, I steam, we all want Egg Cream

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

You scream, I steam, we all want Egg Cream

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

You scream, I steam, we all want Egg Cream

You scream, I steam, we all want Egg Cream
