In the northern lands of Thebes
Under a heartless sun
Three hundred lifetimes ago

Here it lay, the Pharaoh's kingdom
Horizon of the Aten
So lived a child who would be king

PRE-CHORUS 1:
And so he lived and so he died
A tomb than no man shall defile
Forever lost are the fools who dare defy

CHORUS:
(The curse of the Pharaohs)
Inside the Pharaohs tomb the wealth of ages
A curse befallen those who seek the king
(The curse of the Pharaohs)
The lights of Cairo died with those who gave their lives
To the shifting sands of time

Came a man in search of glory
In the Valley Of The Kings
Unlocked a curse that doomed them all

PRE-CHORUS 2:
And so he lived and so he died
And all who conspired paid the price
Death will come swiftly to those who dared defy

REPEAT CHORUS
