| 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… |
