Walk Like an Egyptian

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 on your cigarette Foreign types with the hookah pipes say "Way-oh-way-oh, way-oh-way-oh" Walk like an Egyptian The 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, then 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, 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 shop They sing and then dance (oh-way-oh) They spin the club, cruise down 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, way-oh-way-oh" Walk like an Egyptian Walk like an Egyptian
