[Intro] Set the cheetahs on the loose There's a thief out on the move Underneath our legion's 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
We'll run to the future Shining like diamonds in a rocky world A 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
[Repeat Intro]
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 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 No more it has killed Cleopatra
