Three thousand years ago, King Tutty reigned you know
He must have travelled greatly in his time
For in his tomb out there, was gold and silverware
From big hotels of every land and clime
While going through his royal robes they found up in his sleeve
The first fig leaf that Adam gave to Eve
In old King Tut-Tut-Tutankhamen’s day
The dancers, then in style, would even make the old Sphinx smile
In old King Tut-Tut-Tutankhamen’s day
On the desert sand, old King Tutty’s band, played while maidens swayed
They danced for old King Tut ‘neath moonlit skies so warm
They wore such happy smiles and were in perfect form
They danced for him both fat and thin
He didn’t give a darn what shape they’re in
In old King Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut, King Tutty’s Day!
King Tut
King Tut (King Tut)
Now when he was a young man,
He never thought he'd see
People stand in line to see the boy king.
(King Tut) How'd you get so funky?
(Funky Tut) Did you do the monkey?
Born in Arizona,
Moved to Babylonia (King Tut).
(King Tut) Now, if I'd known
They'd line up just to see you,
I'd trade in all my money
And bought me a museum. (King Tut)
Buried with a donkey (Funky Tut)
He's my favorite honky!
Born in Arizona,
Moved to Babylonia (King Tut)
Dancin' by the Nile, (Disco Tut)
The ladies love his style, (Waltzing Tut)
Rockin' for a mile (Rockin' Tut)
He ate a crocodile.
He gave his life for tourism.
Golden idol!
He's an Egyptian
They're sellin' you.
Now, when I die,
Don't think I'm a nut,
Don't want no fancy funeral,
Just one like ole king Tut. (king Tut)
He coulda won a Grammy,
Buried in his jammies,
Born in Arizona, moved to Babylonia,
He was born in Arizona, lived in a condo made of stone-a,
King Tut
