Egg Cream — текст песни (Lou Reed)

When I was a young man, no bigger than this

A chocolate egg cream was not to be missed

Some u bets 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 juniors, daves on canal street

And I think theres kens in boston

There must be something in l.a.

But beckys on kings highway, was the egg cream of choice

And if you dont 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 beckys, 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 youre in brooklyn, please say hello for me

At totonnos for pizza and ice cream at al and shirleys

But mostly you go to beckys, 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
