Easter Sunday's nearly a month away But the boiled egg is gonna have its heyday Like Martin Luther King Jr. in January Look at that colored egg Holding my hands stained(?) I remember bending coat hangers And dipping them in the water Paas was the cause of all the pretty colors Look at that pretty water Look at that colored egg Look at that colored egg Martin(?) you remember being so iconical I read your story in the daily chronicle It wasn't funny then but now it seems kinda comical
To hold you up like a colored egg I remember spreading newspapers Across the kitchen table I could not wait to dip those eggs into the water As soon as I was able Look at that colored egg [x4] Heeeyyyyyyyy It's a shame we had to learn about you From the television It made you look fatter And whiter And stupider, yeah It's a shame we had to learn about you From the television It makes you look fatter And whiter And stupider, yeah Ooooh yeah Look at that colored egg [x4]
