Eyes glow Vestal virgins laugh In the swirling smoke As the pyramid explodes
I poke down the Nile I see the Sphinx smile She knows who I am As she grabs me by the hand
Well I sat at my trial And the pharaoh smiled Said he knows what I am
I'm the curse, I'm the birth I'm the reaper and the plague And I want you little man
The Sphinx smiles and spreads her wings The pharaoh shouts his curse of kings Golden spheres evolve around him And I float away on a freezing wind
I scream and shout Turn myself to run And the worlds disappear
I'm in a maze that sways I've forgotten what the day is And my body shakes with fear
I must try to escape Before the Minotaur awakes Now my body feels like lead
I try to open doors But I've led me there before This for something that I said
The Sphinx smiles and spreads her wings The pharaoh shouts his curse of kings Golden spheres evolve around him And I float away on a freezing wind
Sphinx - ooh Sphinx - ooh
The Sphinx smiles and spreads her wings The pharaoh shouts his curse of kings Golden spheres evolve around him And I float away on a freezing wind The Sphinx smiles and spreads her wings The pharaoh shouts his curse of kings Golden spheres evolve around him And I float away on a freezing wind...
