Lyrics
There’s a question before the house tonight
Better pay attention, please
The question is a hunk of dynamite
‘Specially in times like these
On your answer so much depends
And the question is simply this, my friends
Refrain
How d’ ya like your eggs in the morning?
I like mine with a kiss
Boiled or fried, I’m satisfied
As long as I get my kiss
How d’ ya like your toast in the morning?
I like mine with a hug
Dark or light, the world’s all right
As long as I get my hug
I’ve got to have my love in the A. M.
Or the rest of my day is positively mayhem
I’m a regular monster
How d’ ya like your eggs in the morning?
I like mine with a kiss
Up or down, I’ll never frown
Eggs can be almost bliss
Just as long as I get my kiss
