Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by tim rice<br>Elton's solo version is unreleased<br><br>Sad to say our mighty ruler<br>Is not really in the pink<br>Hopes could not be minuscular<br>That he'll come back from the brink<br>Not to beat around the bush<br>He looks like heading for his box<br>At the risk of seeming pushy<br>We must plan for future shocks<br><br>According to the hawk God horus<br>Our most regal invalid<br>Is not that much longer for us<br>Build another pyramid<br><br>Build it, build it<br>Another pyramid<br>Build it, build it<br><br>Though all doctors and physicians<br>Have been summoned to his bed<br>It'll soon be top morticians<br>We'll be calling for instead<br>With each wheeze the nation's humming<br>Egypt shakes with every cough<br>No two ways about what's coming<br>No discussion, bets are off<br><br>Soon our monarch will have filled the tomb<br>Just like his fathers did<br>Summon egypt's greatest builder<br>Re: another pyramid<br><br>Build it, build it<br>Another pyramid<br>Build it, build it<br><br>We hate to depress the nation<br>But our leader has been told<br>He should scrub his next vacation<br>Even put tonight on hold<br>This is where his loyal priesthood<br>Has the chance to do him proud<br>Holy leaders at the least should<br>See him happy to his shroud<br><br>He must have a vault that's grand by<br>Any standards floor to lid<br>Put five thousand slaves on standby<br>Build another pyramid
