Pyramids Lyrics - Channel Orange - Frank Ocean

Set the cheetahs on the loose 

There's a thief out on the move 

Underneath our legion's view 

They have taken Cleopatra 

Run, run, run, come back for my glory 

Bring her back to me 

Run, run, run, the crown of our pharaoh 

The throne of our queen is empty 

We'll run to the future, shining like diamonds 

In a rocky world, rocky-rocky world 

Our skin like bronze and our hair like cashmere 

As we march to rhythm on the palace floor 

Chandeliers inside the pyramids, tremble from the force 

Cymbals crash inside the pyramids, voices fill up the halls

Set the cheetahs on the loose 

There's a thief out on the move 

Underneath our legion's view 

They have taken Cleopatra, Cleopatra 

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 

I found my black queen Cleopatra 

Bad dreams, Cleopatra 

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, he has killed Cleopatra, Cleopatra 

Photos 

Big sun coming strong through the motel blinds 

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 

Then your lipstick, Cleopatra 

Then your six-inch heels, catch her 

She's headed to the pyramid 

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 

Working at the pyramid tonight 

Working at the pyramid 

Working at the pyramid tonight 

Pimping in my convos 

Bubbles in my champagne, let it be some jazz playing 

Top floor motel suite, twisting my cigars 

Floor model TV with the VCR 

Got rubies in my damn chain 

Whip ain't got no gas tank but it still got woodgrain 

Got your girl working for me 

Hit the strip and my bills paid 

That keep my bills paid 

Hit the strip and my bills paid, keep a nigga bills paid 

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 

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 unemployed 

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 

Working at the pyramid tonight 

Working at the pyramid 

Working at the pyramid tonight 

Working at the pyramid 

Working at the pyramid tonight
