The Lyrics

this ol' plate looks the same
must we do this all again
this ain't my meat, see ?...and those ova cause me trauma
why'd you go and cook...a meal so scary ?
this could give me dysentery
no eggs, i'll touch...and green green ham is gross

this ol' meal...i'm not havin'
it can just turn cracked and dry
why not some fine poultry ?...duck or goose or capon ?
cause i'll always balk...yes, i'll be wary
its a prospect, i find hairy
no eggs, i'll touch...and green green ham is gross

yes, i'll chow down on zucchini
tortellini.....even weinies
no eggs, i'll touch...and green green ham is gross

then i break...because you hound me
and your logic just confounds me
and i realize...that as i eat...i'm beamin'
when caught off guard...i swear...i found it yummy
tasted good...inside my tummy
now eggs, i'll munch...and green green ham's a joy

yes, i love the stuff completely
when its made...appealin' to me
gimme eggs to eat and green green ham...oh boy !

I thought the eggs were green and the ham was, er - just ham. Nice twist on Seuss you ham.

Receptionist: Mr Rhodes you have a call from the Mayo clinic on line 7 and a call from a Dr. Hamm on line five.
Mr. Rhodes: I'll take Hamm on 5s and hold the Mayo and make sure the eggs are yellow and white and the ham is green and coffee straight up black. Last time I got my breakfast Suessified. One more like that and you'll be seeking alternative employment come the New Year.
