Lyrics

The blonde waitresses take their trays
They spin around and they cross the floor
They've got the moves (oh-ay-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-ay-oh)
They're walking like an Egyptian

All the kids in the marketplace say
Ay-oh-ay-oh, ay-oh-ay-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-ay-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-ay-oh)
They spin the club, cruise down the block

All the Japanese with their yen
The party boys call the Kremlin
And the Chinese know (oh-ay-oh)
They walk the line like Egyptian

All the cops in the donut shop say
Ay-oh-ay-oh, ay-oh-ay-oh
Walk like an Egyptian
