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
All the bazaar men by the Nile
They got the money on a bet
Gold crocodiles, oh way oh
They snap their teeth on your cigarette
Foreign types with the hookah pipes say
Ay-oh-way-oh, way-oh
Walk like an Egyptian

The waitresses take their trays
They 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
Ay-oh-way-oh, way-oh
Walk like an Egyptian

Slide your feet up the street, bend your back
You shift your arm, then you pull it back
Life's hard you know, 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 the clubs, cruise down the block
Foreign types with the hookah pipes say
Ay-oh-way-oh, way-oh
Walk like an Egyptian, walk like an Egyptian
Walk like an Egyptian, walk like an Egyptian
