[Verse 1]
Hieroglyphics
Writings on the wall
Hieroglyphics
Don't make no sense at all

[Chorus]
Well the 'Gyptian dudes might understand
The phonogram and the ideogram
It's just a bunch of funny pictures
To me

[Verse 2]
Hieroglyphics
To me they all look much the same
Hieroglyphics
The way the 'Gyptians wrote their names

[Chorus]
But stuff like this ain't so absurd
To King Rameses the Third
He's got them written on his grave
He's a crazy cat

[Bridge]
We got bulls and eyeballs
Lions and birds
Snakes and beetles
Instead of words
I evеn saw an iris
On papyrus
[Verse 3]
Hieroglyphics
The writings on the wall
Hiеroglyphics
Don't make no sense at all

[Chorus]
Well the 'Gyptian dudes might understand
The phonogram and the ideogram
It's just a bunch of funny pictures
A bunch of funny pictures
It's just a bunch of funny pictures
To me
