Lamb & Eggs

Lyrics

From the Upcoming Stage Musical, Topper Music by Galen H. Brown Lyrics by Eric Zaccar You say he's a dull lamb or a stuffed egg I say you're not looking too deep For you'll find countless possibilities Inside an egg or in a sheep! Could be a white egg A yellow egg But rarely green; Could be eggs benedict Or egg foo young Eggs Florentine! Could be a lamb steak A lamb bake Or leg of lamb; Could be a hero A gyro But never a ham! Just talk about me as if I'm not here While I stand looking pecked and henned! Just pretend that I'm transparent and sheer! There's not all that much to pretend! Could be a hard boiled Soft boiled Scrambled or fried; Could be a poached egg An omelet Or up, sunny side! Could be a lamb burger Lamb balls Sweet peppered lamb; Could be in mustard sauce Or yogurt sauce Lamb glazed with jam! Why do you hate me, I've done you no wrong? But you're just such an inane bore! In your great fortune, I'm a vital prong! I think that I'd rather be poor! SPOKEN: (Right, we all believe that)! Could be bacon and eggs Sausage and eggs Or eggs with cheese It could be ham and eggs Or spam and eggs Eggs over ease! Could be a lamb roast A lamb post Babe, that's a stretch! Could be a lamb stew A lamb ragu Who asked you, Letch?! I'm just a nice, polite and docile man Pillar of the banking community; You had your fortunes placed into your hands; Mine came come from seizing opportunity! Could be a basted egg A shirred egg Or an egg bake Could be in egg creams Or egg nog Eggs in your cake! Could be a lamb shoulder Lamb ribs Or a lamb shank Could be a lamb broil; Lamb kebob; Let's blow this bank! I'm just a gentle individual Quite efficient at what I do; My world might seem a dreary ritual; I keep your cash growing for you! Could be tortilla Ranchero Or an Egg Pie Could be in egg salad French toast Or Matzah brie! Could be a lamb chop A lamb rump Or a lamb belly; Covered in duck sauce Or soy sauce Smothered in jelly! Hundreds respect me here at this great bank Employees grovel as I pass But to you, I'm a mere marginal blank While outside, they all kiss my ass! Could be a deviled egg A pickled egg Egg on a muffin Could be a spiced egg A diced egg Egg in your stuffin(g)! Could be a lamb loin A lamb groin Or a lamb curry; It's time to lamb it God damn it! George, what's your hurry?!
