All the old paintings on thetombs 
They do the sand dance don't you know 
If they move too quick (ohwhey oh) 
They're falling down like a domino 

All the bazaar men bythe Nile 
They got the money on a bet 
Gold crocodiles (oh whey oh)
They snap their teeth on your cigarette 

Foreign types with thehookah pipes say 
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh 
Walk like an Egyptian

Blonde waitresses take their trays 
They spin around and they crossthe floor 
They've got the moves (oh whey oh) 
You drop your drink thenthey bring you more 

All the school kids so sick of books 
They likethe punk and the metal band 
When the buzzer rings (oh whey oh) 
They'rewalking like an Egyptian 

All the kids in the marketplace say 
Ay ohwhey oh, ay oh whey oh 
Walk like an Egyptian 

Slide your feet up thestreet bend your back 
Shift your arm then you pull it back 
Life is hardyou know (oh whey oh) 
So strike a pose on a Cadillac 

If you want tofind all the cops 
They're hanging out in the donut shop 
They sing anddance (oh whey oh) 
Spin the clubs [bad word] down the block 

All theJapanese with their yen 
The party boys call the Kremlin 
And the Chineseknow (oh whey oh) 
They walk the line like Egyptian 

All the cops inthe donut shop say 
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh 
Walk like an Egyptian
Walk like an Egyptian
