Egg Cream

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

You scream, I steam, we all want egg cream

You scream, I steam, we all want egg cream

[Verse 2]

Now you can go to Junior's, Dave's on Canal Street

I think there's Ken's in Boston, must be something in L.A

But Becky's on Kings Highway was the egg cream of choice

Hey if you don't believe me, go ask any of the boys

[Chorus]

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

You scream, I steam, we all want egg cream

[Verse 3]

The only good thing I remember 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

[Chorus]

You scream, I steam, we all want egg cream

Oh, you scream, I steam, we all want egg cream

[Verse 4]

So the next time you're in Brooklyn, please say hello for me

Totonno's for pizza, ice cream at Al and Shirley's

But mostly you go to Becky's, sit in a booth and say hello

Have some chocolate egg cream, one to stay and to go

[Chorus]

You scream, I steam, we all want egg cream

You scream, I steam, we all want egg cream

Hey hey, you scream, I scream, we all want egg cream

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