Easter egg

Easter egg, Easter egg

you're not ready yet.

First we'll have to poke a hole

and drain out all the wet.

Easter egg, Easter egg

you're not pretty yet.

Now that you're a hollow shell

we'll dump you in the color red.

Easter egg, Easter egg

you're not useful yet.

We'll push a piece of string in you

and hang you over the bed.

Easter egg, Easter egg

you're as good as you can get

we'll throw you out and crush your shell

without even breaking a sweat.
