And we'll run to the future[Em]
Shining like diamonds in a rocky world[C]
A rocky, rocky world
Our skin like bronze and[B] our hair like cashmere
As we march to the rhythm[Am]
On the palace floor
[Em]Chandeliers inside the pyramid
[C]Tremble from the force
[B]Cymbals crash inside the pyramid
[Am]Voices fill up the halls
Chorus:
[Em] Set the cheet[C]ahs on the loose

Verse:
The jewel of Africa
(Jewel)
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
Chorus:
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, Cleopatra

Big sun coming strong through the motel blinds[G]
[ch]F#/G[/ch] Em
Wake up to your girl for now let's call her Cleopatra, Cleopatra
I watch you fix your hair
Then put your panties on in the mirror, Cleopatra[G]

Then your lipstick, Cleopatra
Then your six inch heels
[Em]Catch her
She's headed to the pyramid
She's working at the pyramid ton[G]ight

Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid to[Em]night
She's working at the pyramid ton[G]ight

[G]Pimping in my convos

Bubbles in my champagne
Let it be some jazz playing
[Em]Top floor motel suite, twisting my cigars
Floor model TV with the VCR
Got ru[G]bies in my damn chain
[ch]F#/G[/ch]
Whip ain't got no gas tank
But it still got woodgrain
[Em]Got your girl working for me
Hit the strip and my bills paid
That keep my bills p[G]aid
[ch]F#/G[/ch]
Hit the strip and my bills paid
Keep a nigga bills p[Em]aid
She's working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight

Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
You showed up after work I'm bathing your body
Touch you in places only I know
You're wet and you're warm just like our bathwater
Can we make love before you go
The way you say my name makes me feel like
I'm that nigga
But I'm still unimplored
You say it's big but you take it
Ride cowgirl
But your love ain't free no more, baby
But your love ain't free no more
She's working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
That's right
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
