Walk like an Egyptian
And the Chinese know
(Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh)
All the school kids so sick of books
(Oh whey oh)
Walk like an Egyptian
(Oh whey oh)
Life's hard you know
The party boys call the Kremlin
They're falling down like a domino
If they move too quick
They're hanging out in the donut shop
They've got the moves
Gold crocodiles
They spin the clubs cruise down the block
They snap their teeth on your cigarette
You drop your drink then they bring you more
If you want to find all the cops
All the Japanese with their yen
When the buzzer rings
(Oh whey oh)
They like the punk and the metal band
All the kids in the marketplace say
The blonde waitresses take their trays
Shift your arm then you pull it back
They got the money on a bet
(Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh)
Slide your feet up the street bend your back
(Oh whey oh)
(Oh whey oh)
All the cops in the donut shop say
(Oh whey oh)
(Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh)
Foreign types with the hookah pipes say
They're walking like an Egyptian
So strike a pose on a Cadillac
They walk the line like Egyptian
Walk like an Egyptian
They sing and dance
All the bazaar men by the Nile
They spin around and they cross the floor
(Oh whey oh)
