Walk Like An Egyptian by The Bangles

All the old paintings on the tomb
They do the sand dance, don't you know
If they move too quick

They're falling down like a domino
All the bazaar men by the Nile
They got the money on a bet
Gold crocodiles

They snap their teeth on your cigarette
Foreign types with the hookah pipes say

Walk like an Egyptian

The blonde waitresses take their trays
They spin around, and they cross the floor
They've got the moves

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

They're walking like an Egyptian
All the kids in the marketplace say
(...)
Walk like an Egyptian

Slide feet up the street, bend your back
Shift your arm, then you pull it back
Life is hard you know

So strike a pose on a Cadillac
If you want to find all the cops
They're hanging out in the donut shop
They're singing and dance

They spin the clubs, cruise down the block
All the Japanese with their Yen
The party boys call the Kremlin
And the Chinese know

They walk the line like Egyptian
All the cops in the donut shop say
(...)
Walk like an Egyptian
