(King Tut) Now, if I’d known They’d line up just to see him, I’d taken all my money And bought me a museum. (king Tut) Buried with a donkey (funky Tut) He’s my favorite honkey! Born in Arizona, Moved to Babylonia (king Tut) (Tut, Tut) Dancin’ by the Nile, (Disco Tut, Tut) The ladies love his style, (boss Tut, Tut) Rockin’ for a mile (rockin’ Tut, Tut) He ate a crocodile. He gave his life for tourism. Golden idol! He’s an Egyptian. They’re selling you! Now, when I die, Now don’t think I’m a nut, Don’t want no fancy funeral, Just one like ole king Tut. (king Tut) He coulda won a Grammy, (king Tut) Buried in his Jammies, (king Tut) Born in Arizona, moved to Babylonia, He was born in Arizona, got a condo made of stone-a, King Tut! ---

A stone’s throw from Jerusalem I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight And though a million stars were shining My heart was lost on a distant planet That whirls around the April moon Whirling in an arc of sadness I’m lost without you I’m lost without you Though all my kingdoms turn to sand And fall into the sea I’m mad about you I’m mad about you ---

And did those feet in ancient time. Walk upon England’s mountains green: And was the holy Lamb of God, On England’s pleasant pastures seen! And did the Countenance Divine, Shine forth upon our clouded hills? And was Jerusalem builded here, Among these dark Satanic Mills? ---

Be it sight, sound, the smell, the touch. There’s something, Inside that we need so much, The sight of a touch, or the scent of a sound, Or the strength of an oak deep in the ground. The wonder of flowers, to be covered, and then to burst up, Through tarmack, to the sun again, Or to fly to the sun without burning a wing, To lie in the meadow and hear the grass sing, To have all these things in our memory’s hoard, And to use them, To help us, To find…! Ride, ride my see-saw, Take this place On this trip Just for me. Ride, take a free ride, Take my place Have my seat It’s for free. I worked like a slave for years, Sweat so hard just to end my fears. Not to end my life a poor man, But by now, I know I should have run ---

City nights, summer breeze makes you feel all right Neon lights, shinin’ brightly make your brain ignite See the girls with the dresses so tight (Give you love) Give you love if the price is right Black or white, in the streets there’s no wrong and no right, no Outta sight, buy your kicks from the man in the white Feels all right, powder pleasure in your nose tonight See the men paint their faces and cry (Like some girls) Like some girls, it makes you wonder why City life, sure it’s cool but it cuts like a knife, like a knife, it’s your life So forget all that you see It’s not reality, it’s just a fantasy Can’t you see what this crazy life is doin’ to me? Life is just a fantasy, can you live this fantasy life? Life is just a fantasy, can you live this fantasy life? ---

I guess I thought you’d be here forever Another illusion I chose to create You don’t know what ya got until it’s gone And I found out a little too late I was acting as if you were lucky to have me Doin’ you a favor I hardly knew you were there But then you were gone and it was all wrong Had no idea how much I cared Now being without you takes a lot of getting used to Should learn to live with it, but I don’t want to Living without you, it’s all a big mistake Instead of getting easier, it’s the hardest thing to take I’m addicted to ya babe You’re a hard habit to break ---

She knows that I’ve been doing something wrong But she won’t say anything She thinks that I was with my friends yesterday But she won’t mind me lying Because Mother stands for comfort Mother will hide the murderer It breaks the cage, and fear escapes and takes possession Just like a crowd rioting inside (Make me do this, make me do that, make me do this, make me do that) Am I the cat that takes the bird To her the hunted, not the hunter? Mother stands for comfort Mother will hide the murderer Mother hides the madman Mother will stay mum ---

Everyday brings change And the world puts on a new face Certain things rearrange And this whole world seems like a new face Secretly I’ve been tailing you Like a fox that preys on a rabbit I had to get you and so I know I had to learn your ways and habits Ooooooooooo you were the catch that I was after I looked up and I was in your arms And I know that I was captured What’s this whole world coming to Things just ain’t the same Any time the hunter gets captured by the game ---

Sailin’ away on the crest of a wave It’s like magic Rollin’ and ridin’ and slippin’ & slidin’ It’s magic And you, and your sweet desire, You took me, higher and higher It’s a livin’ thing, It’s a terrible thing to lose It’s a given thing What a terrible thing to lose Making believe this is what you conceived From your worst day, Moving in line then you look back in time To your first day And you, and your sweet desire, You took me, higher and higher It’s a livin’ thing, It’s a terrible thing to lose It’s a given thing What a terrible thing to lose Takin’ a dive 'cos you can’t halt the slide Floating downstream, So let her go don’t start spoiling the show It’s a bad dream ---
