[Hook:]
Oh oh oh ooh...
Set the cheetahs on the loose
Oh oh oh ooh...
There's a thief out on the move
Oh oh oh ooh...
Underneath our legion's view
Oh oh oh ooh...
They have taken Cleopatra
Run run run, come back for my glory
Bring her back to me
Run run run, the crown of our pharaoh
The throne of our queen is empty
We'll run to the future, shining like diamonds
In a rocky world, rocky-rocky world
Our skin like bronze and our hair like cashmere
As we march to rhythm on the palace floor
Chandeliers inside the pyramid,
Tremble from the force
Cymbals crash inside the pyramid,
Voices fill up the halls
[Hook:]
Oh oh oh ooh...
Set the cheetahs on the loose
Oh oh oh ooh...
There's a thief out on the move
Oh oh oh ooh...
Underneath our legion's view
Oh oh oh ooh...
They have taken Cleopatra, Cleopatra
The jewel of Africa - you
What good is a jewel that ain't still precious?
How could you run off on me?
How could you run off on us?
You feel like God inside that gold
I found you laying down with Samson
And his full head of hair
Found my black queen Cleopatra,
Bad dreams, Cleopatra
[Hook version 2:]
Oh oh ooh, remove her,
Send the cheetahs to the tomb
Oh, our war is over,
Our queen has met her doom
Oh, no more she lives
No more serpent in her room
Oh, no more it has killed
Cleopatra, Cleopatra
[Breakdown:]
Big sun coming strong
Through the motel blinds
Wake up to your girl
For now let's call her Cleopatra
I watch you fix your hair
Then put your panties on
In the mirror, Cleopatra
Then your lipstick, Cleopatra
Then your six-inch heels
Catch her
She's headed to the pyramid
[Hook:]
She's working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Pimping in my convos
Bubbles in my champagne
Let it be some jazz playing
Top floor motel suite twisting my cigars
Floor model TV with the VCR
Got rubies in my damn chain
Whip ain't got no gas tank
But it still got woodgrain
Got your girl working for me
Hit the strip and my bills paid
That keep my bills paid
Hit the strip and my bills paid
Keep a nigga bills paid
[Hook:]
She's working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
You showed up after work
I'm bathing your body
Touch you in places only I know
You're wet & you're warm just like our bathwater
Can we make love before you go
The way you say my name
Makes me feel like I'm that nigga
But I'm still unemployed
You say it's big but you take it
Ride cowgirl
But your love ain't free no more
But your love ain't free no more
[Hook:]
She's working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
(John Mayer guitar solo)
Pyramids
Set the cheetahs on the loose,
There's a thief out on the move,
Underneath our legions view
They have taken
Cleopatra.
Run, run, run,
Come back for my glory,
Bring her back to me,
Run, run, run,
The crown of our pharaoh,
The throne of our queen is empty.
And we'll run to the future,
Shining like diamonds
In a rocky world.
Our skin like bronze &
Our hair like cashmere,
As we march to the rhythm
On the palace floor
Chandeliers inside the pyramids
Tremble from the force,
Cymbals crash inside the pyramids,
Voices fill up the halls.
Set the cheetahs on the loose,
There's a thief out on the move,
Underneath our legions view
They have taken
Cleopatra.
The jewel of Africa,
What good is a jewel that ain't still precious?
How could you run off on me?
How could you run off on us?
You feel like god inside that gold,
I found you laying down with Samson,
And his full head of hair.
I found my black queen, Cleopatra,
Bad dreams, Cleopatra.
Remove her,
Send the cheetahs to the tomb,
Our war is over,
Our queen has met her doom.
No more she lives, no more,
Serpent in her room,
It has killed Cleopatra.
Big sun coming strong through the motel blinds,
Wake up to your girl,
For now let's call her Cleopatra.
Cleopatra,
I watch you fix your hair,
Then put your panties on,
In the mirror,
Cleopatra,
Then your lipstick,
Cleopatra,
Then your six inch heels,
Catch her,
She's headed to the pyramid.
She's working at the pyramid tonight,
Working at the pyramid,
Working at the pyramid tonight,
Working at the pyramid,
Working at the pyramid tonight,
Working at the pyramid,
Working at the pyramid tonight,
Working at the pyramid,
Working at the pyramid tonight.
