he ruled an ancient world
till his dying day
now he's gone for all time
but still on display
and because they loved him dearly
he's wrapped up this way

mummified
some folks think that its crazy
but he's fresh as a daisy
in his eternal home

so mummified
though his death was so tragic
he's wrapped up in the magic
with the gods, he's among

he became a legend in the cairo scene
but now the folks are greiving him
wrapped him up in some sheets
chic chic chic

so mummified
you might call it fanatic
but its just automatic
its where a king belongs

down the nile there cruised a boat so silently
sailing to the tomb where he will be
free free free

mummified
some folks think that its crazy
but he's fresh as a daisy
in his eternal home
