Back to the Eggs

Occasionally, I return to the alternate reality
where Paul McCartney opted to keep
the original filler lyrics to “Yesterday”:

“Scrambled eggs.
Oh, my baby, how I love your legs.”

Johnson opted to stay in office
for an additional term.

Sgt. Peppers included both “Penny Lane”
and “Strawberry Fields.”

John Lennon announced the end of the Beatles
in December, 1970.

The country rock band Eggs over Easy became huge.
making the pub rock movement much bigger
thus causing the stars of acts like
Graham Parker, Joe Jackson and Elvis Costello
to shine far brighter
than they do on our world.

I love to go to Costello-Land for the rides.

Not so many people cover “Scrambled Eggs,”
but the song does have its defenders.

I still prefer our reality,
but it’s a nice place to visit.
