All the old paintings on the tomb
They do the sand dance, don't you know
If they move too quick (oh weh 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 weh oh)
They snap their teeth on your cigarette
Foreign types with the hookah pipes say
Eh oh weh oh weh oh weh 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-oh weh 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 weh oh)
They're walking like an Egyptian
All the kids in the marketplace say
Weh oh weh oh weh oh weh oh oh-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 weh oh)
So strike a pose on a Cadillac
If you wanna find all the cops
They're hanging out in the donut shop
They sing and dance (oh weh oh)
They spin the clubs cruise down the block
All the Japanese with their yen
The party boys call the Kremlin
And the Chinese know (oh weh oh)
They walk the line like Egyptian
All the cops in the donut shop say
Weh oh weh oh weh oh weh oh
Walk like an Egyptian
Walk like an Egyptian
