Back To Egypt

A new Short based on an older song (1998) from the Secret Sphinx album, using a TTS voice on the last verse.At the time, the lyrics were more of a pun/wordplay exercise on Memphis Egypt and Memphis Tennessee.


Cold desert of the moon
Crude oil of the sand
Whatever time is left
Is at the maker's hand

Back to Egypt
Where the hot wind blows
Back to Egypt
A place where the spirits rose
Back to Egypt

The spinning hands of time
Sand in the hour glass
It's the last and final straw
The straw that broke the camel's back

The victorious city
Great serpent lying beside the Nile
The images in Memphis
Are something to admire
