Bang, bang, bang, bang Heliopolis is my town Where the sun never goes down The ram of the West they call me Even the Nubians worship me Because I rule righteously The sea divides for me I don't subtract, my subjects say I multiply ten times a day It's the sun that strengthens me Down in the tomb, up in the yard Under the pyramids of the sun, uh huh Other rulers divide, I multiply So when I die I'm gonna live large On a solar barge I'll go far Beloved of Amon Ra Other pharaohs can't talk Can't soar like a hawk Can't stand with the head of a ram On the very edge of the Aswan dam In a solar barge With a big harem going Bang bang bang The ram of the West they call me Even the Nubians worship me Archeologists sift my dust For a million years I will persist
Like Tutankhamun I'll live large In the underworld on a solar barge With the coloured lights, the dancing girls The dry ice, out of this world Below me the Nile delta Everybody running helter skelter From Thebes to Karnak, party hard Down in the tomb, up in the yard Party in the pyramids of the sun When you're dead the best is yet to come Through the coloured lights, the dancing girls The dry ice, out of this world Below me the Nile delta Everybody helter skelter Screaming out their grief for me But I'll be sailing above the sea On a solar barge living large From Thebes to Karnak, party hard Down in the tomb, up in the yard Under the pyramids of the sun When you're dead the best is yet to come Bang, bang, bang
