Walk Like An Egyptian Song Lyrics

Walk Like An Egyptian by Bangles

All the old paintings on the tomb
They do the sand dance, don’cha know?
If they move too quick (Oh-Way-Oh)
They’re falling down like a domino
And the bazaar man by the Nile
He got the money on a bet
Gold crocodiles (Oh-Way-Oh)
They snap their teeth on a cigarette
Foreign types with their hookah pipes sing:
Way-oh-way-oh-way-ooo-aaa-ooo…
Walk like an Egyptian.
The blonde waitresses take their trays
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-ooo-aaa-ooo…
Walk like an Egyptian.
Slide your feet up the streets
Bend your back
Shift your arm then you pull it back
Like Sergeant O (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 dance (Oh-Way-Oh)
They spin their clock and cruise on down the block
All the Japanese with their Yen
The party boys call the Kremlin
The Chinese know (Oh-Way-Oh)
They walk along like Egyptians
All the cops in the donut shops say:
Way-oh-way-oh-way-ooo-aaa-ooo…
Walk like an Egyptian
Walk like an Egyptian
