PHARAOH'S ROCKET
the Old Pharaoh had a hectic day
he made his servants kneel down and pray
and when they sang his favorite hymn
it was about him
the high priest said, "You need you a queen
whose rubies are red and emeralds green.
she's out where the dragonflies drone
but her heart is made of the hardest stone."
he was the oldest pharaoh
with the wave of a scepter he had her seized
he was the oldest pharaoh
Old Pharaoh, how could she be pleased?
she said,"build me a rocket for a wedding gift
a black cat purring in a gold cockpit.
bring me a diamond from a star that's near
and i promise i'll be waiting for you here."
between the pyramids in an open space
the launching pad became a real hot place
and into orbit The Pharaoh was shot
The Pharaoh was there
and then he was not
he was the coldest Pharaoh
she was a sparrow
he was the oldest pharaoh
floating down the River Nile
In the Old Pharaoh's boat
here heart's beating with the pulse of the sun
like a little birds throat
Old Pharaoh
he was the oldest pharaoh
