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 ... 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 ... 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 ... 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 ...
