"WHICH CAME FIRST?" Lyrics
Music and Lyrics ©1988 Chicken / Egg
ALL:
Aw, which came first?Aw, which came first?
CHICKEN:
You know my rhymes are evil
EGG:
But my rhymes are worse
ALL:
Aw, which came first?
CHICKEN:
Well I’m the Chicken, I’m the hen, I’m the queen of the coop
And all you grandmas step back, I don’t go in your soup
I’m the bitch! I’m the bird! I can motherfuckin’ fly!
You say the egg came first? That’s a goddamn lie
I’ve been around since Day One and I was chillin’ alone
And if this player say different
He’ll be chokin' on my chicken bone
Ruffle my feathers, you’ll end up in a hearse
'Cause everybody on the planet knows the Chicken came first
EGG:
Oh, you’re the Chicken? I’m the Egg
You’re the queen? I’m the king
Step back, take a knee, I’m gonna tell you one thing
You say you been here all along? You been here from Day One?
Let me ask you this, bitch: “WHERE YOU COME FROM?”
From the Egg! From the shell! That’s the hard-boiled truth!
I’m like a hostess in the front:
“Can I take you to your booth?”
Put your head on, bitch, your logic is broke
Show your daddy some respect or you’ll be gulpin' my yolk
ALL:
Aw, which came first?Aw, which came first?
CHICKEN:
You know my rhymes are evil
EGG:
But my rhymes are worse
ALL:
Aw, which came first?
CHICKEN:
Where I come from? How I come to be?
Well where did you come from, son? You came from me!
Well how the fuck you think you got here?
Someone flick on a switch?
You spent your first twelve days camping under this bitch
So go to bed! Clean your room! Do what your momma say do!
'Cause momma’s with her girls (Coo coo ca-choo!)
And we’re still laughin’ 'bout the time
When your shit popped out
(Hey girl, what’s that Egg about?)
EGG:
I’m glad you got your crew, 'cause mine’s around
And they’d be shoutin' right now
But eggs don’t make a sound
... ... ... ...
They’re like a spy at your door liftin' up the latch
Who’s got a hand in your drawers before you even say “Hatch!”
So get your man on the phone, call your daddy at work
Call your lawyer, call your agent, call your jury, call your clerk
Tell the whole damn courtroom, so everyone hears:
“Before I even got home, y’know the Egg was here!”
ALL:
Aw, which came first?Aw, which came first?
CHICKEN:
You know my rhymes are evil
EGG:
But my rhymes are worse
ALL:
Aw, which came first?
CHICKEN:
Egg, you’re clownin’ yourself, you hide behind your words
It’s obvious to me you wanna get with this bird
So proceed with caution, don’t let down your guard
'Cause I can see from here I’m gettin’ your shell hard
EGG:
I don’t need you, girl! What you think you’re startin’?
There’s eleven other ladies lyin' in my carton
Sure, your breasts are juicy and your thighs are sick
But chickens ain’t shit but hos and tricks
EGG:
Besides, I really don’t know what I’d pick up from you
I ain’t in the market for no Asian Bird Flu
CHICKEN:
Well, it’s no skin off my wing, this bubble ain’t gonna burst
’Cause I can tell just by lookin' that you’d come first
CHICKEN:
You think you’re hot to trot? You think you’re Fabergé?
EGG:
Bitch I’m hotter than a sidewalk on a sunny day
I’m gonna burst, I’m gonna bust, I’m gonna blow my load
CHICKEN:
I’m gonna beat your ass! That’s why I crossed the road!
EGG:
You better watch yourself, I’ll take your legs and arms
I'll wrap you up in plastic like you’re Foster Farms
CHICKEN:
I’ll have you off a wall before you have the chance
You’ll be like Humpty Dumpty with no humpty dance
EGG:
Well I’ll bring all my horses, I’ll bring all men
And we’ll all take turns coming into your pen
CHICKEN:
You wouldn’t stand a chance, I got a whole damn flock
EGG:
I don’t believe you, girl! It’s all ”bok bok bok”!
C: I’ll cut your head off, bitch! E: I’ll make you egg drop soup!
E: I’ll be the fox that finds you in your chicken coop
C: Oh, whatever you do, son, I’m gonna do worse
BOTH: 'Cause everybody on the planet knows that I came first!
ALL:Aw, which came first?
Aw, which came first?
CHICKEN:
You know my rhymes are evil
EGG:
But my rhymes are worse
ALL:
AW, WHICH CAME FIRST!
