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

You 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 street

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 have to say about p.s. 92

Was the egg cream served at becky's, it was a fearsome brew

For 50 cents you got a shot, choco bubbles up your nose

That made it easier to deal with knife fights

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 one to go



You scream, i steam, we all want egg cream, ah

You scream, i steam, we all want egg cream

You scream, i steam, we all want egg cream
