Walk Like an Egyptian


The studentds of 1rst & 3rd year have decorated their classroom door in the ancient Egyptian way to celebrate this Carnival. Will they start walking like an Egyptian?

Maybe this song by The Bangles could help them to learn how to do it:


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 domino 

All the bazaar men by the Nile 
 They got the money on a bet 
Gold crocodiles (oh whey oh)
They snap their teeth on your cigarette 

Foreign types with the hookah pipes say 
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh 
Walk like an Egyptian 

Blonde 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 more 

All 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 Egyptian 

All the kids in the marketplace say 
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh 
Walk like an Egyptian 

Slide 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 Cadillac 

If you want to find all the cops 
They're hanging out in the donut shop 
They sing and dance (oh whey oh) 
Spin the clubs cruise down the block 

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

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

Walk like an Egyptian
