I wrote a song once
And when I sang it every egg broke
Every egg within a hundred miles
I wrote a song once
And when I sang it every egg broke
Every egg within a hundred miles
Popped like a soda can in the freezer
I wrote a song once
And when i sang it every egg broke
Every egg within a hundred miles
Cracked like a wine glass in a cartoon when the opera singer sings
Diner line cooks were at a loss
Restaurant owners cried
Bakers improvised with soy milk and bananas
Clerks and bag boys at every grocery store
Set about toweling the mess
Pushing the white and yellow goo into bags and drains and puddles
Yolks rolled down aisles
Pipes clogged, roaches and ants ate well
Scientists mused and were briefly sought out by confused local news affiliates to explain the occurrence
What had happened was quite simple
But what they couldn't explain was why it never had happened before
I wrote a song once
And when I sang it every egg broke
Every egg within a hundred miles
Popped like bubble wrap
Even after weeks had gone by
People all over the world were hesitant to buy eggs
Prices dropped
And it wasn't the mess that people were scared of
It was the fact of the invisible connection
Between every egg that freaked them out
People were scared and I could understand why
If my eggs are somehow linked to my neighbors eggs
Through the invisible fabric of spacetime
And at any moment
There could be some sort of synchronized destructive resonating between them
Then forget it
I'll go without eggs
I wrote a song once
And when i sang it every egg broke
Every egg within a hundred miles
Busted open like a china cabinet in an earthquake
I bark at you
I shake too
I hold onto grains of truth, wet noodles
I'll be fine
Only be good, and all will be well
I am princely and forgotten
And forgetting I am hanging on
Around the edges I am singed
And infringed upon. Peacetime music
Glassy dream ballets left unfinished
The possibility still twitching like a motion sensor night light
Lovely but awake
So many notes
So many holes left to be dusted
I wrote a song once and when I sang it every egg broke
Every egg within a hundred miles
I wrote a song once and when I sang it every egg broke
Every egg within a hundred miles
I wrote a song once and when I sang it every egg broke
Every egg within a hundred miles
