Walk Like An Egyptian
Go Fish · Live - Created for This [2000]
All the old paintings
On the tomb
They do the sand dance
Don't you know?
If they move too quick
(Oh-way-oh)
They're falling down
Like a domino
All the bazaar men
By the Nile
They got the money
On a bet
Gold crocodiles
(Oh-way-oh)
They snap their teeth
And they make you sweat
Foreign boys
Gonna make some noise
Wayy-oh, way-oh, oh-way-oh, way-oh
Walk like an Egyptian
(How's everybody doing in the sunshine today?)
Blonde waitresses
Take their trays
They spin around
And they cross the floor
They've got the moves
(Oh-way-oh)
You drop your drink
And they bring you more
All the school kids
So sick of books
They like the punk
And the metal band
When the buzzer rings
(Oh-way-oh)
They're walking
Like an Egyptian
All the kids in the marketplace say
Way-oh, way-oh, oh-way-oh, way-oh
Walk like an Egyptian
Slide your feet up the street
Bend your back
Shift your arm
Then you pull it back
Life's hard you know
(Oh-way-oh)
So strike a pose on a Cadillac
If you want to find
All the cops
They're hanging out
In the donut shops
They sing and dance
(Oh-way-oh)
They spin the clubs
Cruise round the block
All the Japanese
With their yen
The party boys
Call the Kremlin
And the Chinese know
(Oh-way-oh)
They walk the line like Egyptian
All the cops in the donut shop say
Way-oh, way-oh, oh-way-oh, way-oh
Walk like an Egyptian
(Like an Egyptian)
Walk like a Minnesotan!
Way-oh
(Way-oh)
Yeah-ah!
