Been and seen down flight from chicago
|
All aboard the African Queen
|
I am on a night boat down to cairo
|
|
Feeling like a tourist with a foreign man abroad
|
Tells it like he thinks it is, but I know he is fraud
|
There is a map tucked under his shoulder
|
And a cap perched on his head
|
If he looked any older, he might as well be dead
|
|
Dressed in army surplus the files around me swarm
|
On a mission without a purpose, I wish I'd never been born
|
|
By the light of a pale moon - Tutankhamen
|
Half past high noon - Tutankhamen
|
|
Put you in the picture - 1884
|
I'm up to date on the literature
|
But I have never been here before
|
|
There is a black boy on the corner trailing me behind
|
Stalking like a vulture money on his mind
|
In the shadow of the giant sphinx the archeological tale
|
Before the eastern sun sinks I'll be learning braille
|
|
By the light of a pale moon - Tutankhamen
|
Half past high noon - Tutankhamen
|
They are playing our tune - Tutankhamen
|
Half past high noon - Tutankhamen
|
|
By the light of a, light of a pale moon - Tutankhamen
|
Half past high noon - Tutankhamen
|
By the light of a pale moon - Tutankhamen
|
Half past high noon - Tutankhamen
