Protector of Egyptians, warden of the tombs
Sitting , waiting silently, hoping for their call
To unleash the awful curse, the ruler over all

Laden with their jewels, those bodies of the deep
With this strong protector, silently they sleep
Mummies, ageless centuries, have been buried there
Hoping in the after life, treasures they will share

Vandals you be warned now, robbers be aware
Try to steal from those rich graves, touch them if you dare
She will unleash such horrors, to make your spirit scream
Spectre's from an afterlife, you have never seen

Silently she's waiting, come on please beware
She will tear your heart and soul,yes, without a care
Leave the dead a sleeping, cold and undisturbed
Run from her watch, silently, and leave without a word

Guardian of the temples, cold and dark she looms
Protector of Egyptians, warden of the tombs
Sitting , waiting silently, hoping for their call
To unleash the awful curse, the ruler over all

Laden with their jewels, those bodies of the deep
With this strong protector, silently they sleep
Mummies, ageless centuries, have been buried there
Hoping in the after life, treasures they will share

Vandals you be warned now, robbers be aware
Try to steal from those rich graves, touch them if you dare
She will unleash such horrors, to make your spirit scream
Spectre's from an afterlife, you have never seen

Silently she's waiting, come on please beware
She will tear your heart and soul,yes, without a care
Leave the dead a sleeping, cold and undisturbed
Run from her watch, silently, and leave without a word
