"Egyptian Robe" lyrics

"Egyptian Robe"

I was hot as a burning dragon on a cross
And I knew my body wanted you
We were barely clothed in Egyptian robes
Is it love or just a screw?

She descends from the stairs of an ancient lair
With two cats at her feet
Her electric pouncer couldn't weigh an ounce
But she managed to conquer me

I've waited long enough, now I have you
Under the sheets in my room
There's my body, just a tomb
For the girls that I've had in the past

Drenched in sweat in a skeleton hat
Dress covered in bright red ink
It was fun for awhile but I knew it wouldn't last
The summer was dead to me

I've waited long enough, now I have you
Under the sheets in my room
There's my body, just a tomb
For the girls that I've had in the past

I've waited long enough, now I have you
Under the sheets in my room
There's my body, just a tomb
For the girls that I've had in the past

How could you not realize it was me?
All of the turquoise jewelry that you seek
How could you not realize it was me?
All of the turquoise jewelry that you seek
How could you not realize it was me?
All of the turquoise jewelry that you seek

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah

I've waited long enough, now I have you
Under the sheets in my room
There's my body, just a tomb
For the girls that I've had in the past
I've waited long enough, now I have you

How could you not realize it was me?
All of the turquoise jewelry that you seek
How could you not realize it was me?
All of the turquoise jewelry that you seek

How could you not realize it was me?
All of the turquoise jewelry that you seek
How could you not realize it was me?
All of the turquoise jewelry that you seek

How could you not realize it was me?
All of the turquoise jewelry that you seek
How could you not realize it was me?
All of the turquoise jewelry that you seek
