Bangles : Walk like an Egyptian




 
 1985
PerformerBangles
TitleWalk like an Egyptian
Lyrictext

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

And the bazaar man by the Nile
He got the money on a bet
For the crocodiles (Oh-way-oh)
They snap their teeth on a cigarette

Foreign types with their hookah pipes sing
Way-oh, way-oh, way-oh, way-oh
Walk like an Egyptian

The blonde waitresses take their trays
Spin around and they cross the floor
They've got the moves (Oho-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

Line your feet astreet, bend your back
Shift your arm, then you pull a clock
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
And the Chinese know (Oh-way-oh)
They walk along like Egyptians

All the cops in the donut shops say

Way-oh, way-oh, way-oh, way-oh
Walk like an Egyptian
Walk like an Egyptian
