[Verse 1: Rockabilly male lead, roaring, slapback bass] Three a.m. at the Starlite and the grill is spittin' grease Bars let out on Main Street and it's sixty in the seats Two eggs, scrambled, wheat toast, hash browns extra brown Spatula in each fist and I'm the fastest one in town Order wheel is spinnin' like a roulette at the fair Waitress Lou yells, "Eight more!" and I holler, "Put 'em there!" [Pre-Chorus: Rockabilly male lead, roaring, slapback bass] Order up, order up, the bell won't quit Two spatulas flyin' and I'm lovin' it [Chorus: Rockabilly male lead, galloping snare, full voice] Over easy, nothing's easy Flip it, baby, don't you tease me Grease up on the ceiling and a line out the door Over easy, nothing's easy, gimme more [Verse 2: Rockabilly male lead, roaring, twangy lead guitar] Sergeant Bill walks in at a quarter after four Says the line is in the street and the marshal wants the door Says, "Shut it down, son, this place is over cap" I hand him a plate and say, "Officer, try that" He takes one bite of the hash and sets his hat up on the shelf Rolls his sleeves up to the elbow, says, "Move over, I'll do it myself" [Chorus: Rockabilly male lead, galloping snare, full voice] Over easy, nothing's easy Flip it, baby, don't you tease me Grease up on the ceiling and a line out the door Over easy, nothing's easy, gimme more [Bridge: Rockabilly male lead, hiccup yelp on every order, twangy guitar answering] Uh-huh-hup, the sergeant's on the hash Uh-huh-hup, the waitress takin' cash Uh-huh-hup, he flips a short stack high Uh-huh-hup, it lands on the plate, oh my Uh-huh-hup, the cop is in a hairnet Uh-huh-hup, the best night of his life yet [Verse 3: Rockabilly male lead, roaring, slapback bass] Sun comes up at six and the line's still round the block Sergeant in a hairnet with a burn and a sweaty smock Says, "Twenty-two years on the force, and this is my best shift" I say, "Bill, you got a gift, and you can keep the lift" We split the tips at seven, eleven dollars and a dime Same time tomorrow, Sergeant, and you clock in on time [Chorus: Rockabilly male lead, galloping snare, full voice] Over easy, nothing's easy Flip it, baby, don't you tease me Grease up on the ceiling and a line out the door Over easy, nothing's easy, gimme more [Outro: Rockabilly male lead, roaring, one last yelp] Two eggs, over easy, and a cop on the line Starlite never closes, honey, come by anytime [End]
