On the radio this morning, I heard this Steve Martin classic, and my kids were wondering why I got all giggly all of a sudden… (some of my readers may wish to ask their parents just what the hell I’m talking about)
King TutKing Tut
Now when he was a young man,
He’d never thought he’d see,
King Tut
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 him,
King Tut
I’d’ve taken all my money,
And bought me a museum.
King Tut
Buried with a donkey,
Funky Tut
He’s my favorite honkey.
Born in Arizona,
Moved to Babylonia,
King Tut
Tut, Tut!
Dancing by the Nile,
Disco Tut, Tut
The ladies love his style.
Boss Tut, Tut
Rockin’ for a mile,
Rockin’ Tut, Tut
He ate a crocodile.
Ooooh
He gave his life for tourism.
King Tut
Tut, Tut. Tut, Tut…
Golden idols!
He’s an Egyptian!
King Tut
Now when I die,
Now don’t think I’m a nut.
King Tut
Don’t want no fancy funeral,
Just one like old King Tut’s.
King Tut
He could’a won a Grammy,
King Tut
Buried in his ‘jammies.
Born in Arizona,
Moved to Babylonia,
Born in Arizona…
Got a condo made of stone-a…
King Tut
