1.	Down and Out in Uruk and Luxor 05:58	lyrics	buy track
I walked the streets so poor I was hungry and pure bumped into a guy stood on the corner, shy said, 'Call me Gil' when he spoke 'I'll trade a pill for a smoke... ...Even in the toughest times The Mushussu shine' When I walked the streets of gold when I was hungry and cold the desert night set in and the Jackal God was king regaling with Fatima 'I saw Cleopatra in a bath of the milkiest whey a Scarab flashed through the heart of the room I will be embalmed by the light of the moon x 2 I will be embalmed by the light of your room I will be embalmed by the light of your moon I will be embalmed by the light of your tomb A jackal yowled to me 'Embalm Yourself' it's time to imbibe this and swallow your pride, is what we have known equal to empty high-ness I will be embalmed by the light of your room I will be embalmed by the light of your moon I will be embalmed by the light of your tomb
2.	Light of Ra (it's gonna shine) 01:52	lyrics	buy track
Light of Ra it's gonna shine it's gonna shine eternally When the dusk comes We'll be sitting here 3 by 3, eternally And I don't expect the world to end because there's always another dimension There's always another dimension, please Don't worry cos we're gonna be in the air With the breeze Please don't you worry Cos the light of Ra's gonna shine It's gonna shine, it's gonna shine eternally because there's always another dimension for us to retreat into And to investigate and minimally populate the newer dimensions, oh shine Oh shine, light of Ra &/or Horus shine Just don't leave me on my own take me to your twilight home Cos there's never-never-never gonna be a time When another-nother-nother dimension Won't open, wide Just open wide your mind
