All the old paintings on the tombs
They do the sand dance, don't you know?
If they move too quick, oh, whey, oh
They're falling down like a dominoAll the bazaar men by the Nile
They got the money on a bet
Gold crocodiles, oh, whey, oh
They snap their teeth on your cigaretteForeign types with the hookah pipes say
Ay, oh, whey, oh
Ay, oh, whey, oh
Walk like an EgyptianThe blond waitresses take their trays
They spin around and they cross the floor
They've got the moves, oh, whey, oh
You drop your drink then they bring you moreAll the school kids so sick of books
They like the punk and the metal band
When the buzzer rings, oh, whey, oh
They're walking like an EgyptianAll the kids in the marketplace say
Ay, oh, whey, oh
Ay, oh, whey, oh
Walk like an Egyptian
Walk like an EgyptianSlide your feet up the street, bend your back
Shift your arm then you pull it back
Life is hard you know, oh, whey, oh
So strike a pose on a CadillacIf you want to find all the cops
They're hanging out in the donut shop
They sing and dance, oh, whey, oh
They spin the clubs cruise down the blockAll the cops in the donut shop say
Ay, oh, whey, oh
Ay, oh, whey, oh
Walk like an Egyptian
Walk like an Egyptian
