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
