  • Song Lyrics:
    Easter morning, I awoke to see what I could find
    And when I looked, I found 3 eggs
    That the bunny had left behind
    And they were so pretty
    One was blue, the other was pink and the third was yellow
    And then, before my very eyes, they began to hatch
    The first one went 'cheep cheep'
    And the second one went 'cheep cheep'
    And the third one went 'Man, like what a drag'.

    I don't want to be an Easter chick
    I want to play the bass guitar
    I want a black leather jacket with buckskin shoes
    And drive me a foreign car.
    I want to go go go in stereo
    I want to be a record star
    'Man, like I don't dig feathers'

    So I said, "Let's go and play
    And we will have such fun
    For I will go and get a doll
    For each and everyone"

    And the first little chickie got so excited; he wiggled his little tail
    And the second little chickie jumped up and down with joy
    But the third little chick just stood there, 'Man, I can't make this scene'.

    I don't want to be an Easter chick
    I want to play the bass guitar
    I want a black leather jacket with buckskin shoes
    And drive me a foreign car.
    I want to go go go in stereo
    I want to be a record star
    'Like man, dolls bug me'

    How we played and played and played
    Until my mommy said,
    'It's getting late, so wash you face, it's time to go to bed'
    So I washed each little chickie and tucked them into bed
    And kissed them all goodnight
    And the first one yawned and said, 'cheep cheep'
    And the second one snuggled into his pillow and said, 'cheep cheep'
    But the third one just looked at me and said,
    'Man, like I can't sleep when it's dark'

    I don't want to be an Easter chick
    I want to play the bass guitar
    I want a black leather jacket with buckskin shoes
    And drive me a foreign car.
    I want to go go go in stereo
    I want to be a record star

    Goodnight, little chickies
    Man, like wow
