Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ich war in Kairo und auch am
Blauen Nil war ich schon einmal
Und selbstverständlich
(Ohhweohh) war ich auch schon am Suez-Kanal
Ich war in Gizeh
Dort wo die drei spitzen Pyramiden steh'n
Ich sah' die Sphinx
(Ohhweohh) und glaub' mir

Ich fand sie wunderschün
Aber eins fand ich ziemlich schwer
(Weohh, weohh, weohh, weoohh)
Geh'n wie ein Ägypter

Ich fühl' mich einsam
Wenn ich allein durch die Wüste gehen muß
Ich stell' mir vor (Ohhweohh)
Die Sphinx gibt mir einen dicken Kuß
Big Party mit Kleopatra
(Wеohh, weohh, weohh, weoohh)
Gеh'n wie ein Ägypter geh'n wie ein Ägypter
Geh'n wie ein Ägypter geh'n wie ein Ägypter
Geh'n wie ein Ägypter

Ich sah die Sphinx mit erhob'nem Kopf
Mitten in der Wüste steh'n ich hab' versucht
