B-52s - Mesopotamia lyrics

(originally from the album Party Mix/Mesopotamia)

Turn your watch

Turn your watch back

About a hundred thousand years

A hundred thousand years

I'll meet you by the third pyramid

I'll meet you by the third pyramid

Ah come on, that's right, I want

For me in Mesopotamia

We're going down to meet it

I ain't no student

Feel those vibrations

Of ancient culture

I know a neat excavation

Before I talk I should read a book

But there's one thing That I do know

There's a lot of ruins In Mesopotamia

Six or eight thousand years ago

They laid down the law

They laid down the law

aa aa aa aa aa aaa

Six or eight thousand years ago

They laid down the law

aa aa aa aa aa aaa

I'll meet you by the third pyramid

I'll meet you by the third pyramid

Ah come on, that's right, I want

For me in Mesopotamia

We're going down to meet it

Now I ain't no student

Hear those vibrations

Of ancient culture

I know a neat excavation

Before I talk I should read a book

Mesopotamia that's where I wanna go

But there's one thing that I do know

Mesopotamia that's where I wanna go

There's a lot of ruins in Mesopotamia

Six or eight thousand years ago

They laid down the law

They laid down the law

aa aa aa aa aa aaa

Six or eight thousand years ago

They laid down the law

aa aa aa aa aa aaa

In Mesopotamia

aa aa aa aa aa aaa

They laid down the law

aa aa aa aa aa aaa

In Mesopotamia

aa aa aa aa aa aaa
