Scrambled Eggs
Jimmy Fallon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh my baby how I love your legs
Not as much as I love scrambled eggs
Oh we should eat some scrambled eggs
Waffle fries
Oh my darling how I love your thighs
Not as much as I love waffle fries
They are
So damn good that they should be illegal
They're like
Regular fries but they're shaped like a waffle
Chicken wings...
"Chicken wings? No, no, no... Vegetarian, no chicken wings."
"Oh, I forgot, it was actually..."
Tofu wings
Oh my baby when I hear you sing
All I think about is tofu wings
Oh did you bring the tofu wings
There's a
Place I know where I go for kick-ass wings
We could
Even get a side of onion rings
Scrambled eggs
Oh my baby how I love your legs
Not as much as I love scrambled eggs
Oh let's go get some scrambled eggs
At first glance, the lyrics to Jimmy Fallon's song "Scrambled Eggs" might seem nonsensical - a jumble of food-related proclamations about a lover's body parts. But upon closer inspection, the song actually reveals itself to be a lighthearted and playful ode to the simple joys of comfort food and the pleasures of sharing a meal with someone you love.
The song opens by professing adoration for a lover's legs, but quickly pivots to the subject of scrambled eggs - a dish that the singer apparently loves even more. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, which intersperses declarations of affection with enthusiastic endorsements of various food items, from waffle fries to tofu wings.
The overall effect is one of joyful abandon - the singer seems to be reveling in the pure pleasure of eating delicious food and being in the company of his beloved. Whether or not the song has any deeper meaning is open to interpretation, but it's clear that Fallon is having a lot of fun with the absurdity of the lyrics and the playful melody.
